WH......you're not really as d__b as you appear, are you? You know about information warfare, psyops by a government on its population, right?

"Corner turned! Mission Accomplished!" say the Wingnuts. Yeah. Right.

Ditto, yabits: "The question is whether any decline (or increase) is indictive of a sustainable trend." The Wingnuts won't even address the fact that W's administration was duped by Iranian intelligence (in a word, Chalabi) into greatly increasing Iran's influence and…

Bush/Cheney strategy: lose.

The outgoing top U.S. military commander in Afghanistan said Friday that attacks increased 50 percent in April in the country's eastern region, where U.S. troops primarily operate, as a spreading Taliban insurgency across the border in Pakistan fueled a surge in violence.

In a sober assessment, Gen.…

"Most teachers, like most journalists, are left-of-center." Hey, that explains how all the major media hired former generals who were working for Rumsfeld and weapons makers to hype the invasion! because they're owned by leftists! ...and, uh, they wanted to discredit movement conservatism by getting the public to support neoconservative…

The reason the White House is so hell-bent on signing a long-term Status Of Forces Agreement: it would seemingly allow the U.S. to brand Iran as an enemy of Iraq and attack Iran in the name of defending Iraq pursuant a legal obligation under the status of forces agreement. http://www.mcclatchydc.com/251/story/40372.html…

Full-circle: Righties proclaim they are happy that the US was duped into strengthening Iran...

Diplomats, counterterror analysts and a former top military commander agree that President Bush's attempt to secure Baghdad will only succeed in dragging out the conflict, creating something far beyond any Vietnam-style "quagmire." The surge won't bring…
