Joe, What do you recommend we do about Iran and North Korea?
So you are stumped, Ican, Bush is too, poor thing, poor us, and even Tony can't help what with his skinny little government, so what to do?
Bush is about to put John R. Bolton in the most sensitive negotiating position on the face of the earth. In a hundred years, historians will wonder what the hell George was thinking by putting this hip-shooting shouter of idealogy at the very balance point of humanity's survival. Truth is, or was, Bush probably didn't give it much thought. He probably got a message from God.
So how are things going?
The insurgency seems to be boiling in Iraq.
The riots in Afghanistan over the destruction (purported or otherwise, the mullahs don't care.) of a Koran in a toilet have not abated and the western end of that country and the southeast tribal lands are in a state of no controlling authority.
In Lebanon, the Syrians have departed, setting up the next theatre for insurrection (you heard it here first)
and the Iranians are drawing gasses to make an atomic weapon.
Gosh. If we could just get some good news out of Israel all this would seem insignificant.
What makes it insignificant is the news today that the North Koreans are harvesting their fuel rods
now instead of waiting another year to get even greater return. What's their hurry?
Have we seen George get on a midnight flight from Texas to put a stop to all this? Must not be any right to life pandering to be done, so no. Did Bush ask Putin for his input and assistance with the wayward Iranians, he's done so well with the the Chechens, maybe he has the ideas needed.
Nope.
And now I think it may be too late to do anything.
I think we are doomed.
I did everything I could.
