I'm thinking the War on Terror will move rather suddenly to Iran....

In other words, the Iraqi terrorists  won.  I'm curious how Bush will spin
this as a victory.  That'll  probably be easy since most people are
clueless.  They'll believe  anything.  But, how will he answer where the war
is after it's no longer  "over there"?  I suppose after London this whole
war on terror  thing  sounds pretty hollow to most reasonable people, the
minority in  this country.  In the red states they're no doubt awaiting Bush
to lead  them into the rapture.  Maybe he'll even screw that up.  I want  to
know how he's going to explain this to Allah after he's raptured  out.
