I kinda have the impression we will reshape the middle east and think that is the ultimate objective of this administration and I think it is a good idea. Drain that swamp of tyrants and royals, introduce democracy, give them a taste of money from their oil, build some schools and businesses, get the mullahs out of power and let them have at it.

Yes, we'll do what Patty Murray suggested. We'll build schools, hospitals, and even daycare centers at the point of a gun and with Iraqi oil money, maybe even with Saddam Hussein's $7 Billion in Swiss bank accounts. He won't need it anymore. Even stupid people make good suggestions every once in a while (Patty Murray, I mean - not you).
