Where's the Great RW Distraction?
Every time the going's gotten rough this admin pulls something out of the hat (mass graves, weapons trailers, Saddam video) to change the subject.

With the military facing its biggest crisis of the war--wha hoppen'd? Where is it? Did they finally run out of even marginally credible ideas? Or is Rummy's goose so cooked they've given up?

:shrug:

1. Shouldn't we be going to Mars about now?
Maybe they actually run out of stupid ideas for the moment! :eyes:

3. Mars! Yeah, good one, George

Everybody believed that for about...ONE MINUTE!! Why what a coincidence too...on the fortieth anniversary of JFK's death...

It's gettin' hard to be a Republican (tee-hee)

2. Only Another War Could Distract The World Now
And if Dimbo starts it, count on trade embargoes with the EU and others.

9. There's no one to fight it
One thing they can't pull out of a hat is more soldiers.

8. Not wishing, but it is very odd
Almost like it got away from them...because it's too early to shoot the pre-election wad ("capturing" Osama, "lower" gas prices) they've been caught short-handed.

6. Stay tuned Citizen! Our fearless leader will....
bring about another "regime change" to a country near you! (sarcasm
off).

Seriously though...anything could happend at this point. The heat is
definitely building up and the bushistas cannot relinquish control.
If they do, then the republican party as a whole could collapse...now
wouldn't that be a wet dream. :evilgrin:

Anyways...I fear that another staged event is coming shortly...
definitely before the elections. They CANNOT have "free elections"
and that's what concerns me the most.

10. My guess is that the RW has a distraction planned, but....
at the rate these photos and rumors of more to come that are worse trickle out to the public, they're afraid of getting trumped too soon. Somebody who knows how this mis-administration operates is getting at them. One theory is that the CIA is getting even for shrub's people outing their operative.

11. Pointing the finger back at the insurgents

I tried to point it out last night. Nobody got it. They will continue to do so.

12. The distraction must be larger than these war crimes
Edited on Sat May-08-04 06:28 PM by jokerman2004
The only thing bigger than the horrors that have come to light, I feel, would be a catastophic terror event here at home.

And apparently, the script isn't finished for that episode yet.

14. What we are not seeing right at the moment
is defeat in Iraq and total chaos in the preparations for the "handover" of power. Things are getting worse and worse by the day, and not getting any attention.
