4. "We told them so . . ."
The whole world tried to warn the bush crime family that invading Iraq was wrong. We were called a "focus group" by Der bushita.

We can look to our our history -- the red coats a.k.a. the British lost to the home court advantage.

Invasions rarely work -- especially one that was done on the cheap and little of any post invasion planning.

I fear things will get a whole lot worse in Iraq before the damned US corporate media will bother to reveal some of the facts about what is happening in Iraq.

Those of us who have given up on CNN, FOX etc and turn to the Internet for our main news source generally know "things" days, weeks or months in advance of people who only listen or watch the corporate media.

We also tried to warn the US administration that Vietnam was pure folly that was killing thousands on each side --- but we were ignored until it got so bad that the only option was to leave via the roof top of the US embassy.
