2. Today I heard on NPR that the Generals (on the ground)

have sent back their assessment of the war.

They claim that we have not lost the war. They claim that we can win the war.

All we need to do is fight the war with a new plan. We need to be all in or it is lost.

8. Hmm, I wonder whether they could dust off Nixon's secret plan to win in Vietnam.

After all, he obviously didn't use it.

6. They would have to say that, wouldn't they?

I mean, their paycheck sort of depends on war as an ongoing enterprise. I'm hearing the same thing right now from insurance company executives about what a vital service they provide to the American people. There's something in my digestive tract causing me to become dangerously dehydrated, but I dare not take antibiotics and kill the little parasite; it could be performing some necessary function as it kills me. I'll wait until Glenn Beck weighs in on this.

7. Well, then, why can't they hurry up and lose it?

But then, the Bushistas actually lost the peace in Afghanistan as well as surrendering in their war there against Al Qaida.
