This guy is an arabist. He would have done well in the State Department.

I no longer watch C-Spin as all the Rat Bush haters calling in made my BP go up to high.

Um, to all of you liberals out there who are incapable of strategic thought, wouldn't you think that if we wanted an empire we'd start with some place a little more desirable, and maybe closer? Hell, we could have grabbed Mexico with little more than a couple of days' fighting, and we'd have oil and some great vacation spots.

Likewise Cuba. You could send a liquored up gun club from Georgia down there and take over the place in a week. Iraq has oil, but so does Mexico, and it's lot closer.
