I would agree that Bush is going to try to shift the blame for his arrogance and stupidity to Iran and Syria. And it will work. You should see how many Americans foam at the mouth at the mere mention of Saddam Hussein. And it's obvious they were conditioned to do this via the media and nothing else. So the media machine will feed us horror tales about Iran and Syria and the same thing will happen--idiotic yanks will swallow all that garbage and blame them for this whole debacle.

As for the dems, I've already lost faith in them to do anything sane. They yacked about a 5-day work week for Congress and then call Monday off so they can watch a college football game (that didn't even come on until the evening anyway).

Pelosi is micromanaging everything and refusing to let various committees properly investigate the lies and corruption of this administration.

Lieberman is now not going to pursue the administration's foul-ups over Katrina. He's even gone so far as to say that certain evidence is now missing and then HE LEAVES IT AT THAT!! That should be an investigation of its own and he's going to drop the whole thing instead. Granted he's not officially a democrat but really he is.
