I cannot understand a strategy which is designed to fail.

Neither can I, but of course I'm referring to Rove and Bush, not the RKBA "Whackos". If George wants to write off a chunk of his support, I guess someone did the math and figures that's the politically smart move.

We loud-mouthed "Whackos" have long been warning about what would happen. That doesn't mean we WANT it to happen, but there is a morbid fascination in observing how these warnings go unheeded. To use an analogy, it's as if the Titanic were sailing along at one-quarter speed, in broad daylight, with perfect visibility, and the lookouts spotted the iceberg while it was still miles away. They communicated their findings to the bridge personally, even handing the captain a pair of binoculars and pointing out the looming danger. Yet somehow with miles of open, navigable waters ahead in which to avoid the hazard, the captain *still* manages to hit the iceberg dead center.

History is replete with examples of what might happen if warnings (and even plain old common sense) are ignored.

Bush not signing this bill will not mollify most of these critics. They are perpetually screeching about one of his policies or the other being the "straw that broke the camel's back." So far those straws make up a nice bale.

Those who are oblivious to the clear fact that their allies are the worst enemies America has are not interesting in fact, or logic.
