What'd I say !!
Hey Folks,
In the second post below, I said Bush & Co. had bitten off more than they could chew because they were businessboys who had always gotten their way and who thought they always would.
I've also said that they "don't understand hillbillies."
If you missed that, it goes like this:
Hillbillies (my heritage) have nothing but their pride and their kin. They are not the kind of people Bush & Co. and all the other corporate/governmental ginks are accustomed to pushing around; i.e. fearful, humble souls clinging to their miserable job, kissing up, self-effacing, willing to put up with anything.
No. Hillbillies aren't like that; they have nothing but their pride and their kin (and in some cases their fanatical, backward religion); and when you start fucking with any of that, you are in for the long haul.
You can't talk them into being your "boy." You can't coerce them into kissing your ass. And if you kill one of them, you've just made twenty-five new blood enemies. In the end, unless you exterminate them all, you are going to be disappointed.
Well, Georgie Porgie with the silver foot in your mouth, you are going to be disappointed, you arrogant fool.
Ask your new General/Admiral/Whatever: you "underestimated the enemy's persistence." No shit!! But then YOU've never had to deal with hillbillies, have you, Frat Boy?
You'll never get the picture, but some within your hollow circle are coming to realize that expanding your super-duper-power-empire into the land of the sand hillbillies ain't beanbag and it sure as hell ain't business.

Fallon says U.S. miscalculated Iraq
By ANNE FLAHERTY, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - Adm. William Fallon, who is poised to become the top American commander in the Middle East, says the United States miscalculated the ability of Iraqi forces to take control and underestimated the enemy's persistence.
"Securing the stability of the country has been more difficult than anticipated," Fallon said in a written statement to the Senate Armed Services Committee. "Our ability to correctly assess the political, economic and security situation in Iraq has been lacking."
Fallon's remarks were submitted in advance of a confirmation hearing Tuesday. Fallon, who commands troops in the Pacific region, has been tapped to replace Army Gen. John Abizaid as head of the U.S. Central Command.
