October nears. Is Iran to be the "surprise"?
If Bush unilaterally attacks Iran, what do we do?

3. I think he'll do what he did with Iraq.
Wait until after the election with the Republicans safely in power and he can intimidate demoralized Democrats into going along.

Cheap gas will make it happen and if that's not enough there's always Diebold.

By the way, I sincerely hope I'm wrong.

4. We deal with it. If he does go through with it, we will be despised
for decades, the chinese will drop all our t-bills on the market so our economy will go south.

The high point will be that republicans will not be able to regain power for decades. That's a nice thought.

5. The most popular war is the one that hasn't started yet. You get the..
swagger without the suffering. But that might not even work for Smirk because of the Iraq debacle.

6. Some shit is being set up with those trenches around Baghdad.
Trust me, that's being done with some "terror victory" being all planned out.
