5. But we won't be successful in the end ... we will be kicked out - just like we were in Vietnam.
When will we ever learn? It's called - NATIONALISM. :grr: :nuke: :thumbsdown:

4. Seems like TPTB just want to hold onto "our way" of life
As long as possible.

They can't all be thinking they're going to be raptured up before it runs out.

They have to know they can't take it $ with them.

Some of them have to give a shit about their great grand children.

So they get hold of the all the oil in the middle east. How many generations get to live fat off of that before it all falls apart.

I don't get it.

6. Here's my prediction about Iraq--it will bankrupt this country
I wonder how "safe" those * voters will feel when they tap into the Social Security fund. We can even repair the infrastructure, yet we can afford to flush billions into Iraq every week????
