Expect the Worst From Bush

As the Bush presidency continues to dismantle, expect wild efforts to recover a semblance of success as the thing collapses. In moments of desperation, failed politicians often begin gyrating hysterically. The neocons were hysterical to begin with. Why should they be any different now?

The most likely gyration would be an attack on Iran. The military will oppose it because they lack the troops to throw into the abyss, but that won't necessarily stop Bush and Cheney. The Joint Chiefs of Staff opposed the invasion of Iraq, but that didn't affect the prez and his veep.

Expect a wild ride as we head toward the 2008 elections.
