Did I just hear on CNN
Rummy's visit to Iraq is a Victory Tour? Did anyone else hear that?

1. I decided to leave the propaganda machine off this morning.
So I didn't hear it. But it wouldn't surprise me if they spun it that way. We have the mightiest military force in the history of the planet tha twent up against a fifth rate sanctioned country's military. Of course it is a military victory, as long as they don't look at the guerilla warfare, the occupation, the failure to resotre and rebuild, etc ad nauseum.

2. CNN
I heard it. What can we expect though. They have to get out their propaganda. It makes them look sillier and sillier. Of course some people will be fooled.

3. Oh yeah, some victory
Its shameless how these stations are just whores.

The other day I heard Faux, in an official "news" report (not commentary, but reported as actual news) refer to Germany and France as "The Axis Of Weasels"

4. Of course it is
Nobody needed to tell us.



I rode a tank
In the generals rank
While the
blitzkrieg raged
and the fighting stank


It doesn't matter who dies, as long as munitions are bought and treasures captured. And we Americans have even invented rebuilding our enemies and having crooked contractors paid by our taxpayers foot the bill.

5. Rummy went there as backdrop for little man's bush speech...
on Sunday. David Gergen said that it was all politics. The bushies have no new programs to present. They are very scared of the Democrat 9. The Democrat 9 debate was very successful or the regime would not be putting the little man out there. His lies will be all on Iraq, based on Rummy's lies, and on Powell's lies: Bush's Stragegy-UN to rebuild Iraq.
