Cons Plot American Romp Through the Sewer: "Winning Dirty....the 80% Solution"

At last we get a picture of what an American "victory" will look like:

Ethnic Cleansing
Atrocities Against Civilians
Massive Refugee Flows

Beats losing? Really? -Because this rhetorical question keeps running through my head:

"What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?"

So desperate and so frantic are the cons to make this case that the mouthpiece even dares to use the truth about the escalation's obvious failure:

"...so far civilian casualties are not down, progress on political reconciliation is glacial, and U.S. casualties have increased significantly."

Laura Rozen offers some chilling analysis:

"This reads like a game of telephone gone awry -- or perhaps something a bit different. Kondracke's Plan B, "unleash the Shiites," or the 80% Solution, is an idea that was advocated internally to the administration last fall chiefly by the Office of the Vice President. It's worth considering that Cheney may want to reinforce just such a message on his current trip to Saudi Arabia and the region, that if the Saudis, Egyptians and Jordanians can't lean on their Sunni brethren in Iraq to make the Iraq gov't of national reconciliation a go, the alternative could be worse for them. Is Kondracke part of the effort to deliver that message, as it were?"

Sounds like just the sort of threat one might expect a thug like Cheney to deliver, hmmm? And here I thought he was just there to pledge higher gas prices.

fait acommpli!

Our country would never recover.

from the flow of oil.

10's of thousands and we had to have this war to stop it. Yet Iraq managed to have a functional society under him which is obviously not the case today. Morton is a complete waste of a human being.
