When Arafat Dies
here's my nightmare scenario ...

Arafat dies ... Hizbollah fights for and wins power ... Hizbollah is largely backed by Iran ...

bush invades Iran under the pretense that we cannot have state sponsored terrorism from a government that's been developing nuclear weapons ...

he also uses this as an opportunity to proclaim "victory" in Iraq and move the troops into Iran ... here we go again ...

but this time most democrats say "NO !!!" and even a few moderate republicans jump ship ... not enough though ...

Yassir, we're off to another country to "spread democracy" ...

1. And may Bush draft all the children of his poor voters and
ship them off.

I'm really not feeling pity for Bush voters right now.

7. I know, I'm one of them,

but luckily, I have family who have promised to pay for my plane ticket out of the US if that happens.

I empathize with Kerry voters who will get drafted. But * voters? Screw them. May they get shipped off to a desert hellhole.

I've lost my liberal spirit. They brought this on themselves.

8. They were pawns & will soon find out he doesn't give a shit about them
They were just little chess pieces in his little game. He's won and he doesn't need them anymore....

I know I shouldn't be, but I've lost my compassion for the time being.

2. Freedom's on the march
Not once has Bush said he's done with his little preemptive strike experiment. We're going to see more wars before his term is up, mark my words.

3. China is the fly in the ointment
They are cozying up to Iran for their energy needs and guess who Bush needs to buy up his deficit?

4. If we go into Iran,
N. Korea won't wait. They know they are the third "Axis of Evil" so they will launch a preemptive nuclear strike-after all, Bush gave them the precident.
