Hey everyone, pay no attention to the continuing parade of carnage! In a couple years, we might get a Walmart and Starbucks in Baghdad!

1. I think the proper thing for bush supporters to do

(Ya know the chickenhawks who have no desire to do anything positive for their country) to book their vacations in Baghdad and Fallujah. Then they can come back here and share all the good news with the rest of us.

4. Great idea - I think the Bush twins should spend their next vacation there

I'm sure they'd love Bagdhad's night life!

3. "Unemployment runs between 30 and 50 percent."...

But the undertakers? Can you say 80 hour weeks! And their 401K plans are out of this world!

5. Someone always makes money during a war.

That is one of the main reasons we have wars. Here is how to explain the above post. Bill Gates and nine homeless people are sharing a room. Their average wealth is four billion dollars or more.

6. Take the guy who stole $2 billion earmarked for electric grid reconstruction...

Sure, 10 million are without electricity because of his actions, but he's just the kind of "plucky" character who forgoes the whining and makes lemons out of lemonade.
