New and Improve Iraq War

[Badger1]

The White House said today that a majority of the stabilization of Iraq will now be place with the State Department, taking the ball out of the military's hands. A new department of spin has been created and the resale of the war has begun. It's repackaged, improved and fortified and is being sent out again with a new face. More raisins, chocolate, whiteners and a new streamline design. We accept the "new and improved" cereal, dish soap, vitamins and autos but can they expect us to accept a new and improved war? I am sure that there are marketing experts that lurk here, and know much more than me, but does this (mis)administration really think that a new package can turn around sales? Are these people really that desperate or are they beginning to realize what a gigantic mistake this this was from the begenning? Where are my expert peeps? Please comment. I realize this is preaching to the choir, but what are your thoughts?
