OUT OF THE SMOKY LIES AND INTO THE FIRES OF CHANGE WHILE HANDEL'S MESSIAH IS PLAYING

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
Barack Obama

I don't oppose all wars. What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war.
Barack Obama

The big question is going to be, if Iran is resistant to these pressures, including economic sanctions, which I hope will be imposed if they do not cooperate, at what point are we going to, if any, are we going to take military action?
Barack Obama


If McCain is president and if his Secretary of State is Joe Lieberman and his Secretary of Defense is Giuliani, we will be moving towards the World War IV that they have been both favoring and predicting.
Zbigniew Brzezinski

While it is absolutely true that no Republicans should be back in the White House after the Decider leaves for his homely little ranch (or escapes to his 90,000 acre Paraguayan asylum), President Barack Obama will give surprises and disappointments.

A road traveled is not the destination.

Obama might very well widen the wars of Bush junior.

If Dick and the Decider don’t bomb Iran, Obama still might.

Obama sounds quite gung ho to expand the war in Afghanistan, where every invader in history has lost.

The Green Party and the Libertarian party---and some leftists and liberals---want American soldiers to stop killing and dying in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And what is the U.S. really fighting (or fighting for) in those countries?

Democracy?

Freedom?

Israel?

Insurgents?

Al-Qaeda?

Itself?

Glowing promises made by candidates in the hellish honeymoon of presidential campaigning become quite different things after the White House is won.

I hope for the best, but all of the chickens haven’t been hatched yet.

IT'S THE OIL STUPID!
