“The U.S. economy is hanging by its nails. It still has not pulled itself up over the edge of the cliff we went off six years ago. And now the warmongers would have us step on its fingers again. The hapless Paul Bremer, who was in charge of the occupation government of Iraq under Bush, is pushing combat forces. Says John McCain, ‘We are now facing an existential threat to the security of the United States of America.’ Really? An existential threat? I can’t be sure, but didn’t he say the same thing in 2002-03? But before anyone sells Americans another war pig in a poke, it is worth pausing to ask, ‘How did it come to this?'”
