There are stacks of USA Today at each register. One woman says to the other "We offered him a peace deal but I hear it won't happen. They're going after him."

"Who us" the other woman asked

"No, the Iraqi government."

"Good, we get in too much trouble over there."

Unbelievabe the sheep in this fucking country!

:grr:

1. If the US packed up and went home
how long do you think the "Provisional" Iraqi govt would survive?
days, weeks ?
Sheeple don't want to know the facts.

It's amazing.. My BEST friend, as much as says she's "not interested" in any politics.. I remind her that when she IS interested, it will be too late.. Like when she tries to live on Social Security:(

8. Even So, Sir
At least one of those people thinks "we get into to much trouble over there...." Hardly a ringing endorsement of the current course of the criminals of the '00 Coup, that.

"LET'S GO GET THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!"

10. Agreed however
They fully accept the meme that the Iraqi govenment is its own sovereign entity.
