This place is being overrun by wackjobs.
1. Iraq's Ba'athist government overthrown
2. Saddam Hussein executed
3. A new Shi'ite-dominated government in place in Iraq
4. The U.S. utterly incapable of mounting a serious military campaign anywhere in the Middle East
5. The ruling party in the U.S. government thrown out of office, to be replaced by elected officials who are basically avowed Communists
6. Iran's biggest export (oil) trading at historic high prices
7. (As a result of #6) Iran's nuclear program accelerated to a point far beyond anything they could have imagined.
If you had told me back in 2002 that this is what would transpire over the next five years, I'd swear there had to be an agent of the Iranian government sitting in the White House.
