Struck by the obvious parallels in lies and blunders and manipulations and anti-American spirit of the American leaderships’ mirror image wars in Vietnam and Iraq, who’d have imagined that there was such an earlier parallel to absorb?
An earlier royalist, anti-people, anti-liberty, anti-Democracy, fervent enemy of all the freedoms and noble liberties that America would come to stand for, another George — George III, that time — laid out the gameplan for disaster with his approach to the “mess” in America during the revolution. It sounds like the game book that his heir apparent in monarchy is following even now.
You can read about it in the Times in a neat piece by Michael Rose. Hopefully something as “positive” will follow for America as George II Bush’s mad war dismantles — at the horrid cost of our children’s lives. The surer hope is that because of the laws and freedoms the revolutionaries established and which are now so despised by Bush & Co. we will soon enough be rid of these un-American Republicans and can have hope that the country will heal and move on.
The sooner the better.

Hey! This is where you went to… I adjusted my links accordingly. I was missing my daily dose of your unique sense of humor.

Adjusted link, tested, and it is even functional. Woohoo!
I was worried something was wrong until I saw a comment from you in one of your diaries at the dead end link that was testing the functionality of your own Blog. I figured it would just be a matter of time until you fixed the bug.

What a relief to have you back. I was worried that you were sick. Your blog is part of my daily routine.

Thanks, Barbara. It was all too technical for me to understand but it’s good to be back — and to hear from you again
