8. Now I know why i didn't want to go for a Master's
I read the abstract and the conclusions and glanced at the rest. This has got a "sensational" title and "come-on" statement in the abstract, but contains nothing that I already don't know (yes that's a double negative). However the reference list does look impressive.

9. the REAL reason was fill mediawhores airtime....
and that's what the 'war' did, to date....
the mediawhores are fronts for the bfee, and the entire bush admin. is played as a media event. when the true 'to-be-paid' bills come due in the real world, the busheviks expect to be far away counting their loot (converted into euros etc) and let kerry et al clean up mess....
the 'media' ignore fact they are THE main player in US politics, and THEY determine failure or success of anything...
