There's no "straighter." Thanks!

The sad fact is that for all the human sacrifice and suffering given for this cause,it will have been in vein, because this country will just slip back into abject religious turmoil that belatedly is Iraq.

@naybobdenod

Sad, and you expressed it perfectly. Cheers!

No doubt the fundie loser McCain and Lindsey Graham are trying to spin a Iran take over of Iraq secenerio ,somthing not in fact.. After all it's their country and if they want us out so be it .. I meen realy maybe they think wev'e destroyed enough ,tortured enough and killed enough inocents there.. It's like these two cluster fu*ktards haven't a clue.. Not to mention troops in that part of the world have a fat bullseye painted on them for religous terrorists....

@kamphwagon1

Rwanda, bodyparts cascading into Lake Victoria, something the African censors couldn't hide. I remember e-mailing friends in Zambia who didn't believe the magnitude of the human slaughter at the time.

The 1996 Château Phélan-Ségur St-Estèphe comes to mind. Oh wait, maybe that was Hannibal Lecter's pairing with frontal lobe sweetbreads. Less pretentious, richly coloured and deeply flavored, and are known for their longevityeasy. Easy to overlook when ethnic cleansing is a fact of daily life.

"What is dénouement?"

@zippyman818

LOL! One of our favorite idiom words, "dénouement." Its inherent "Frenchosity" is so strong, it resonates a wafting aroma of a deep Bordeaux, like a '74 Château Lafite Rothschild. It has great presence. Funny comment Z

"..by someone of limited ability." Is that a euphemism for retarded adult or special needs? This is a matter of the USA quitting before we got fired. It was always one of the scenarios looming. The next manufactured crisis will be the humanitarian crisis in spring or summer of 2012 that will have nothing to do with oil but everything to do with innocent women and children in a civil war. Our record is poor; Bosnia 5+ yrs, Rwanda 800K and no response. Naked kids prompted us to Somalia.

You're quite the realist, a good thing when lives are at stake. It's a terrible shame we invaded Iraq without due cause or real justification. We find the loss of life, largely innocent Iraqis, as well as an ample number of Our most Patriotic and Loyal Americans, to be very troubling. We've seen war up close several times, and it's a terrible way to resolve anything. It's just further proof that man is nothing more than an animal, and one of the most cunningly ruthless. Thanks Z
