Make with the head stabby!

Apparently, reconstructing Iraq isn't about who can do the job best, it's about who did what we told them to do when we told them to do it. Got it.

Please don't spew any drivel about "But they didn't send troops". On this, I frankly don't give a hairy rat's ass. Save the name calling and high handed arrogance ("Old Europe". Right. This from a man who looks like he's been pickled ever since then.) for "civilized" discourse. We should be concentrating on what's best for the Iraqi people, not some obscurantist schweinerei about who sent troops.

Yeah, we run everything, reject the leaders the Iraqi people sent, and control who is allowed to work inside the country.. but we didn't conquer them! Oh, no.. that would have been imperialistic.

Waiting for Haliburton to change it's name to the American Persian East Company and start raising regiments of sepoy troops local security forces any minute now.
