I gotta say I'm with you on this one. I used to think that this was all a diabolical plan and they were just lying to us about what they wanted to get out of it. Now, I think they actually buy their own line of crap, which is actually MORE terrifying.

You could see this as soon as the post-invasion phase started. I kept thinking, "They've got to know we're not going to be welcomed as liberators. That's just classic imperialist bullshit. They must have some other plan for the post-invasion phase that they're not telling us about."

But no. Being welcomed as liberators WAS THEIR PLAN.

I suppose it's possible that they deliberately fucked this war up, but I think that actually gives them more power and omnipotence than they have shown themselves to have. The ONLY things this crowd can do right are manipulate American public opinion, plunder the public coffers, and rig voting machines. At everything else they've tried to do, they stink.

Ah well,
