Well, he thinks he is the messiah. Of course, he can run the world and play golf at the same time.

From Wikipedia:

His fame quickly evaporated as the war continued into the insurgency phase; from the middle of 2003 onward, he faded from the public spotlight, and was no longer a figure in the war. Although questioned by American authorities, al-Sahhaf was released, and there has been no suggestion of charging or detaining him for his role in the Saddam Hussein government. He is now living in the United Arab Emirates with his family. When asked where he had got his information he replied, “authentic sources—many authentic sources”.

he Persian Gulf War (2 August 1990 – 28 February 1991), known also as the Gulf War, the First Gulf War[12][13], or often as the Second Gulf War [14][15] and by Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein as The Mother of all Battles,[16] or commonly as Desert Storm, for the military response. The final conflict was initiated with United Nations authorization, by a coalition force from 34 nations against Iraq, with the expressed purpose of expelling Iraqi forces from Kuwait after its invasion and annexation on 2 August 1990.

Where are the pictures of CodePink outside the golf course protesting the war???? Any?
Has Cindy Shehan set up camp on the 18th hole??

What about Micheal Moore? There is a war that he calls illegal going on. We’re still not using socialist healthcare like Cuba. And Zer0 is on the golfcourse, which is a perfect symbol for elite capitalism. FatMoore has made a film on all these issues. I am sure he’s pointing his cameras on Zer0 now, right?

"Time to cue to psycho-historians."

I keep wondering where the hell America's psychiatrists and psychologists are with regard to Odinga's numerous psychological disorders.

Pathological lying, narcissism, spiteful/vindictive behavior, racist attitude, hostility, arrogance, etc...

Dr. Charles Krauthammer once referred to Odinga as a narcissist. Since Dr. Krauthammer is a board certified psychiatrist, I want to know why the rest of America's psychiatrists are so damn quiet about this. I have a feeling that Dr. Lyle Rossiter will support Dr. Krauthammer's diagnosis.

Have you ever read Dr. Rossiter's book about the democrat mindset?

"How does he do it?"

Simple.

Since he has ZERO interest in daily meetings and conferences with America's National Security leadership, he would clearly rather waste our taxpayer dollars playing games.

And he’s probably put more mileage on Air Force 1 in 9 months than Bush did in 8 years.

Don’t know how much the rest of you are paying for gas but yesterday around here it was up to 2.85! Article in the paper said it was up 17 cents just in a couple of weeks. So where is the outrage?

True story: I recently heard a tv report (local, not network) that said the HIGHER PRICES of gas was GOOD NEWS because it meant demand was increasing...and increased demand meant more consumer spending...

In other words, the complete opposite of what was whined about during the Bush administration. I wanted to throw an ashtray through the tv.
