Bush: Zarqawi's successor will be on U.S. 'list'

CAMP DAVID, Md., June 12 (Reuters) - President George W. Bush said on Monday that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's successor as al Qaeda's chief in Iraq would be in U.S. sights, signaling the U.S. military would keep targeting insurgent leaders.

Bush was speaking to reporters after convening high-level consultations at the Camp David presidential retreat hoping to capitalize on Zarqawi's death. "I think the successor to Zarqawi is going to be on our list to bring to justice," he said.

I called this days ago. They wouldn't have offed Zarqawi unless they already had his replacement lined up and ready to go as the next baddie - prop him up and turn him into a monster. He will become a household name and the target of American hatred.

Gotta love how these guys work. Rinse and repeat.

4. Bush homework assignment: watch 'Munich'.

Then get somebody to explain it to you. Here is a clue: they live there and are not going to leave. We don't live there and we are going to leave. Killing their leaders may result in great feel good headlines but it will not result in the salvage of your failed Iraqi Blunder.

5. I can think of somebody else who needs to be "brought to justice."

I'll hide behind a smile
and understanding eyes
and I'll tell you things that you already know
so you can say
I really identify with you, so much
and all the time that you're needing me
is just the time that I'm bleeding you
don't you get it yet?
I'll come to you like an affliction
and I'll leave you like an addiction
you'll never forget me
you wanna know why?
cause I'm a liar
yeah I'm a liar
I'll rip your mind out
I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me
I'll turn you into me
cause I'm a liar, a liar
liar, liar, liar, liar

8. Zarqawi's successor, unnamed at this point, and not accused of any crime

is in the US's sights?

10. "I think the successor to Zarqawi is going to be on our list....

to bring to justice".

You "think" Chimpy? That's so lame. What about "Bring It On"? What about "Wanted Dead or Alive?"

Another point, Zarqawi was not "brought to justice". He was killed. There is a difference there, but I wouldn't expect the Chimp to know that.
