How could "Stay the course" mean "regime change." As if this makes any sense at all...
BUSH 2002: "I'm staying the course with regime change in Iraq..."
What silliness these so-called pundits spew via their cake holes...
Actually, that part, I think, is a pretty good question. What DOES Stay the course mean? And when do we get "there"? I think the erratic John McCain, in a moment of lucidity, had a pretty good definition. When he can fly into Baghdad International, get off the plane, and drive down the freeways and main streets to the green zone without escorts and without having to worry for his life.
And re that constitution, people forget that half the country is women and they get a vote on it so, while they alone aren't enough to torpedo it if it's too restrictive, they wield considerable political power. And we will be making sure they get to vote.
Unless their men won't let them out of the house, of course.
And in Iran, you can't make the assumption those black-robed mullahs are going to be running things forever. Right now I think you've got a government that's going to make their rule look like a tea party.
