You Lost What? Where?

Public Radio ran a report that the US has lost hundreds of thousands of weapons in Iraq--weapons purchased for the Iraqi government security forces- pistols, machine guns, grenade launchers-- maybe as many as 300,000 weapons... . Now I have been forgetful in my life-- and at times even careless with my property-- but MR. RUMSFELD this is the MOTHER OF ALL SENIOR MOMENTS-- you lost 300,000 weapons in a war zone--full of terrorists, insurgents, self-appointed freedom fighters, zealots -- and this was part of your efforts to quell the violence--and don't forget as you have said so often --we are at war. So what happens if those weapons wind up in the hands of the people who are causing the violence in Iraq-- Donald...Rummy ... Baby... I know you have lots of toys and you won't miss these but --you've just got to be more careful with your things!
Now if this report were true, it would seem clear that we really have management problems in this administration--the war is their high priority, it's their main thing-- with turning the government against citizens and in favor of big business a close second-- This war, and how we got there, is what Bush will be remembered for...yes?
Well, I'm going to wait for part two of this story--there must be more--the weapons will be found in a room or a bunker somewhere and this time you guys will keep better track of where they are--you guys just couldn't be that bad.
Now with the election coming up and so many newspapers convincing themselves the the Dems will win something for a change- the Republicans are saying- ain't gonna happen-- why so confident--do they know something that we don't know-- will their folks will show up in record numbers ? Maybe, maybe not. The confidence is spooky to some but encouraging to others and that is the point-- bu-u-u-t there is still that lunatic fringe out there the ballot conspiracy people, they think the election counts are rigged in key states like Bush winning the job loss capital - Ohio- in 2004 --and of course ever since 2000 -- that 500 vote win in Bush's brother's state, in which the ballots could not be recounted according to the Supreme Court guys appointed by Bush's father and confirmed by Secretary -Congresswoman-Senator? Harris-- now that's what the lunatic fringe calls a conspiracy no- that would be a perfect storm of conspiracies but that is a whole 'nother thing!
