After I heard Bush's speech, and heard the quotation from Woodward's book about Bush not consulting his father in Iraq because he only need consult "the heavenly father" I had an abrupt realization about GWB.

I used to believe that Wolfie, Rummy, Perle, and co. had duped Bush into war. Now I think that dubya and the pro-war advisors have a symbiotic relationship. The ideologues get to invade Iraq and try out their hand at 'democratizing the region' while Bush gets to carry out a religious crusade. Bush simply thinks it's God's will to take on the Mooooslims, while his cohorts think they are Gods themselves.

As for the soulless...a lot of my sypmathy drained away when they bombed a busload of kids this morning. I just want the US out. The spoils of Iraq will go to the victor, the most ruthless and vile leader to scramble atop the growing pile of bodies. The US won't stop that, nor will we win such a campaign. We're only prolonging our, and their, agony.

One of the most cogent remarks on this thread:


"Otherwise, one of the really notable characteristics of good is that it's good."

I'm gonna have to use that one.
