The Ghost of Christmas Future visited me and spilled a few beansover the eggnog:

History will be unrelenting in the view that:

The US fought an unprovoked War of Aggression by going into Iraq.
It turned out really bad
Bush is an idiot

1. I think we already know that now..

Is the Ghost of Christmas past a bit behind (or forward?) the events going on?

3. I think that

The Ghost of Christmas Past sees us as we invade Iraq under patently false pretenses that were accepted by the media and the public and the co-enablers at that time

The Ghost of Christmas Present sees us (as a country and a world) waking up to all of the above. The pretense is ending if not over.

And in the future we see it as it is, unstripped of our false wishes and dreams - a disaster built upon the lies of our leaders.
Hopefully, at this point (although the Ghost of Christmas Future did not reveal this to me) we would see slowly revealed through the swirling mists: panels of inquiry,gavels falling, reporters breathless, a president stepping down.

That is how I really feel.

God we all seem to have something humming amongst us.

2. But will the 30%-ers realize this before the missiles fly?
