O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by thse fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all the details
Since daddy had to lie
-Don Henley, The End of the Innocence
Well it looks like once again the Bush family is once again going to rely on close family friends to clear up the blunders of George W. Bush with the formation of the Iraq Study Group a "bipartisan" commission that is supposed to look at the U.S. options now that blundering bozo Bush has completely screwed up in Iraq. It is headed by James Baker the Texas lawyer who also led the legal effort to stop the vote counts in in the 2000 election that gave the Presidency to Bush.
Unfortunately, unlike the bailouts of George W's failed business dealings in the past. The stakes in Iraq are very high and have been for some time. Because this time the blunders of George W. Bush have resulted in the deaths of almost 3000 U.S. troops and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi's and there's no way even guys like Baker can make that fact disappear.
