1. He is in love with the Iraq war. He is in love with "globalization".

Tom Freidman does not belong on Fresh Air. He is a big, loud Fart.

3. Sigh. How long did it take Friedman, the

master of the mideast, to figure out what this admin was doing?

4. At least he did come around

He did say he wants the price of oil to go to $100 a barrel so we will be forced to do what we should have been doing all along.

5. What impact will that have on transportation industries? Who

or what is his 'thing'? Now I'm very curious; it's not about
oil for him; the higher the oil, the worse trans will do.

...be driving around in his chauffeur driven limousine. I don't see the plus side of that. Unless I owned a bunch of oil company stock.

7. Damn, he sounds just like Bin Laden

"And in another tape aired two weeks prior, on Dec. 16, Bin Laden uses economic concepts to explain why the price of oil should be $100 a barrel."

8. How about this? If oil goes that high, many industries will

suffer more than they already have, like airlines, trains, autos, all of us!
Forced to do what? He inspired this war; thought it would be a great possibility for future freedom. He thought wrong.

9. Still it is interesting to see what he has to say.

It is amazing how fast the neo cons are coming around to Osama's point of view. Maybe they are not far apart at all. Both are theocrats, boyj capitalist, both are ready to kill anyone anywhere.
