I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

McCain is on the Twisted Talkin' Express

So, pulling out of Iraq is just off the board for Johny Boy because "My friends, I will never surrender in Iraq."

Uhm, pulling out equals surrender? Okay, let us say it does. Just to get into this wacky world. Just who would we be surrendering to? The legitimately and duly elected government of Iraq which we helped install and support? That's who would be in charge, wouldn't they? Wasn't the "Surge" successful? You said it was. Didn't we win?

John, and those pundits who also repeat this line, you're all off your meds. Time to see the docs.

Also, now we hear that AQI (al Qaeda in Iraq) is very close to defeat. Hurrah! The somewhat limited, barely connected to al Qaeda main, home grown terrorists wack jobs who didn't exist before we invaded, who though it was proper to put diapers on goats, we've got them on the ropes now. Let's celebrate!

You know what. I'm tired as shit of "improvements" and "nearly there" and "very close." Fuck it. Five years and counting, the last super power (as Russia stands up and say, "Not so fast there"), $150+ Billions in direct cost (close to $13 trillion in direct a indirect costs), and we're involved in a logarithmic progression to victory? Sorry, time to cut loses and leave. Focus on Afghanistan and Pakistan and KILL AL AQAEDA. Cut off the head, kill the snake.

John, I liked you in 2000. You've lost your "straight talk" persona and have gone all party wonk. Remember when they called you RINO? Why did you cave in just to get a stinkin' nomination.
