Opportunities. Sometimes They're Missed.

The Bush Administration gets a lot of shit for getting pretty much every fucking thing wrong when it came to the Iraq War.  But I really believe that, right up til the bitter end even, public sentiment would have made an immediate 180 degree turn had W & Co. put out a version of Simon & Garfunkel's I Am a Rock changed to I Am Iraq.  I mean, camon - that's a great song!  The whole county would be holding hands all kumbaya-style, singing "I am Iraq..." over and over, not a dry eye across the whole country; please, we woulda been putty in W's hands.

But they didn't, and that makes me sad  :(
