No, they're not giving up and going home.  Never mind the first rule of holes.

On first reading, I got about three words in before I started thinking, Good god, is he serious?  Is he insane?  Why would they publish this?  Are they all insane?  Which is pretty much the soundtrack from inside my head thru reading the whole thing.

But then I thought, no, I'm glad the WSJ published it, I'm almost grateful to them for publishing it, because if the neocon cabal is really this far off the rails, we do need to know that, we do need to remember just how bad they can be... lest we be lulled into complacency, lest we fool ourselves into believing we're in the homestretch and they can't possibly make it any worse in the 600 days, 23 hours and 21 minutes they have left.  Because they can, and clearly, they want to.

Be afraid.  Be very afraid.

It cost civilization a bloody world war in which millions died and whole nations were destroyed to stop the planet from being tipped mechanized Dark Ages from which is may never have recovered. And one of the casualties that perished in rubble of the Third Reich was the excuse that, when evil people tell you what they plan to do, they don't really mean it.
With a hat tip to Helen.

Can the last politician to go out the revolving door please turn the lights off?
