Apparently there is someone of the "Socialist" persuation working within the confines of the White House grounds.

Did I not say that Democrats are envious, evil, mongering backbiters, and NEVER TO BE TRUSTED!!!!!!

I don't think the NYT needed any leak to pull off this scoop. I'm not a big Bush basher, but let's face it, Iraq ain't doin so hot. So Bush being critical of Iraq's PM is no secret. What was Bush going to say at this meeting ... "Great job and stay the course" ?! C'mon, the country is in the middle of a full fledged secterian power grab ... better known as a civil war. If it's not a civil war, than neither was the one in the US. Bottom line, NYT didn't tell anyone anything new. But the sad fact is that if ush wants to control Iraq, he will have to do some things that are directly contrary to democracy and Western human values. Not going to happen.

I don't know if it's a Civil War in the way that the US one was. It's more like gang warfare... Eastside vs. Westside kind of thing... and a lot of different warlords/mob bosses/clerics involved.
It's chaos.
Figuring out how to fix this might give us insight into how to fix the inner cities in America. Somehow I don't think violaiting Western human rights values is going to be on the table, nor should it be. It will likely exacerbate the situation.
Saddam kept stability in the region... but he also exacerbated ethnic differences. Common problem all over the world. And it's one we need to figure out how to stop if the world will ever see peace.

I just love sarcasm.

Problem for you though ex... which of your two statements (quoted above) do I consider sarcasm?

Answer: Both! But the second one made me laugh more.

My first reaction to this story was quite the opposite. I thought that the leak was done with the full support and knowledge of Bush the Lame. The hoped for effect would have been to soften up the guy before the scheduled meeting. I think al-Maliki's cancellation of the tryst came as a surprise to the Bush bots.

Righty,
I suppose compared to you I might be a lefty. Of course, compared to you so is Atilla the Hun, so that's really not saying a lot.

Not saying a lot is something you are indeed the master of.

I'm not capable of verbally engaging someone prone to drawing crude illustrations such yours.

Of course if you had the capability to discern the fact that I was actually disagreeing with exigent we'd be getting somewhere. (But that's just not realistic of me to hope for such things.)

Joker figured that out with his question to you.

You've been bested by those you mock. What a pity you missed that.

Perhaps you should go back and re-read it... aloud.
