...I'm okay with being REALITY-based.

I Got My Mind Set On You

Rummy is opining about Iran again today. Not only that, but he's vehement about not allowing Iran to influence his new baby colony:

"We're going to actively oppose any Iranian influence
in that country that attempts to make Iraq an Iran-type
model and we'll do it with words to start with, and we'll
do it energetically," he said.

"Energetically." From any other person that word might be benign. From Rumsfeld, it's a positively frightening prospect. I notice, however, that as soon as someone in BushCo starts talking Iran or North Korea, the media dutifully distracts us from the realities of the economy and the rest of the world's opinion of our country. Our nation is in the worst financial and diplomatic state it's ever been in... watch out Iran.
