Hey Sport!
What makes you think the Koreans and Japanese want us there?

I don't really want to rain on your parade of delusion but Obama isn't pulling us out of Iraq any sooner than Johnny Mac will be. Now that he has the nomination, the run to the center will begin as well as the espousal of actual governing policies. There will be no precipitous withdrawal from Iraq. Americans may not want to be in Iraq but they want to lose in Iraq even less.

The part of the campaign, post convention, where Obama starts ignoring those who nominated him is fast approaching. Watch for the new, more nuanced, approach to Iraq. I'm already prepared for the ensuing double-talk from the rock farms of upstate New York defending the great centrist.

Free,
McCain has never been on the far right. I'm on the far right, as you know it, and Johnny Mac is nothing but a career government employee to us. And he doesn't much care for us, either. His only hope is the center and an ample supply of clothes pins for those like me. He'll pander his way into any position, much like the other guy, the Ichabod looking one.
