With much momentum behind things that are going well in the world I'd suspected when Bush was put into office he'd find it impossible implimenting plans to bring about Armaggedon.
I mean real productivity gains are freeing people from tedious wasted and ill conceived activities. There's a world wide efficient economy in everything from Cocaine to Car parts. The Just In Time philosophys (from Toyota) of creating only those components that have an immediate market has improved quality and allowed workers to improve products and delivery speed in almost every way. There's lots of things going well
Still I'm seeing bad things too. This silly war Persian war. Skyrocketing abortion through morning after meds. Geometric growth in Heroin production from our experiment in Afghanistan. And a cosmology of BigLise from a putrid starscape of bastards like Rowe, Bush and Cheney. Listening to their moronic stoogy crap makes me irritable, as if my ears were dragged across hot shards of glass. Can't anyone just step off the bandwagon and call what's obvious?
And this Katrina business isn't such a happy thing either. Do people have to accelerate misery to further their greedy little agendas? Is it necessary to destroy lives trying to leverage old goals, like support for faith based organizations (or their greedy friends), no bid contracts (just like the ones that are strangely failing to provide electrical power to Iraq), changes to "no child left behind" so army recruiters have free rein to embarrass and pressure all slightly lonely or unsure kids into a body bag shortly after their 18th birthday? And lately this biz of altering laws to allow chits for private schools in the South. All of the private schools are christian schools with close ties to Republicans and Army recruitment floggers.
Roughly: There never was any legitimate basis for assuming Weapons of Mass Destruction existed. Did anyone seriously believe that several missiles would enter Israeli airspace without being shot down or detected during setup or final assembly? How many serious people would suspect that a second wave of missiles could also reach real targets, so we could reach a magic limit of "mass destruction" which would probably be more than the number of people killed in car accidents on a Thanksgiving day weekend. Mass destrucion isn't constructged on dreams and hope. Even if a few rockets could be lofted against our enemies could a juvenile program actually score several accurate and wide spread deadly attacks. If their program did exist it would have been lame, and long before the war all the evidence suggested that one didn't exist, likely because Saddam's regime realized that point.
