Participation in a conspiracy is dangerous stuff. There are always loose
ends that you can't tie up. That's why big awful conspiracies that
require lots of secrecy and participation are silly. Acting President Bush is,
I believe, worried that more and more attention is being turned to the
conspiracy that he lead to obtain office and that eventually someone is going
to turn up incontravertable evidence of criminal behavior. He wants to divert
attention while simultaneously boosting his popularity.
If you look at his dad's popularity when we attacked Iraq a decade ago, it shot
up higher than Slick Willy's ever made it. The problem with timing. His
popularity dropped faster than he'd expected and didn't get reelected. He
should have waited ten more months before attacking, but probably he just
couldn't.
The son will attempt the same winning strategy as his father, with some
refinements. We have to go into a popular war or he won't be reelected -- and
might end up in prison!
