Homeland security is messed up and just collecting pay checks.
With a weak Economy now the US is making it harder for visitors to come to the US. It's like a store closing it's door and asking why their losing money.
Iraq has already talked to Iran and made the deal long before 2008. Iraq is now asking that debts be dropped and when the new US Administration comes in the US will be kicked out of Iraq. Iraq will then start pumping oil and getting rich. McCain should be glad he got his 5 dollars rugs because in 2009 they will cost much more. The Republicans/Halliburton had a plan and thought they were smarter then the Middle East. They have now learned they were played for the fools they are. Now Cheney has been working as CEO of Halliburton for 7 years but he will get the biggest surprise of all, when he loses his shares and profit. Daddy Bush will see a drop in his profit also as for his idiot son well he's go back to the ranch in Texas and just drink and do drugs. Powell is working hard at playing stupid and looking to suck up to Obama. Powell was one of the biggest disappointments of the Group. Yes we knew Rummy, Connie and others were crooks but Powell had the support of the World Leaders and the Military. Powell sold everyone out and he knows it. But like most fast talking liars he's do his best to blame someone else and act like he wasn't involved. At lease George Tenet got a big pay off to keep his mouth shut. This Administration has taught me one thing don't believe every thing that's said and don't trust anyone at their word when it comes to Law Makers, Journalist, Media and others. Take time to see who someone is before you accept them at their word.
