It seems humankind is destined to be ruled by yesterday's men.

Recently President Bush went to Israel where he waxed long and loud about
America's unconditional support for this redundant and unnecessary state,
where nearly all of the world's Jews choose not to live, and since its
imposition has been a thorn in the side for Arab nations.

Then a few days later he crawls up on his belly to beg the Saudis for a
production increase in crude oil so as to lower the American pump price of
gasoline.


Jumping jehosephat..!!

He also disparaged talking to opponents while, for example, hes been talking
to N Korea while they went ahead with a nuclear program in the face of his
threats; and, of course, we talk to Iran while they proceed with their
nuclear program, and supply militias in Iraq.

And then McCain has mentioned a date by which the US will be done in Iraq,
even though he's condemned the idea of doing that becasue it would aid the
enemy.....
