2. Hmmm, always in motion, the future is
Difficult to predict with certainty what will happen. And certainly as the popularity of the Iraq invasion continues to wane (unless you believe that one in a skabillion chance that something positive will actually come out of our direct military involvement there), a number of Democrats will lose their pro-war edge, as Murth and Kerry have before them.

Or is Walsh saying that we ought to just throw up our hands and concede that the war will go on, inexorably and inevitably forever, no matter which party is in charge? Reading this excerpt, it's difficult to see where he admits to any possibility for change. And if there is none, what does he advocate? Leave the country? Armed insurrection? Or is he just writing out reams of depressing screed to insure a steady paycheck for himself as a prophet of doom?
