    The man who sold the war

    Dear Joan:

    There are many things about this man I have found detestable; but, the sale of the war is not one of them. That is more the child of another cabal with agendas far from the red lands where Karl does his normal dirty work. The Iraq war caries a level of lethality and physical destruction that is beyond the character destruction arena of the wisper campaigns that Rove prefers. He is more of a house pet Rasputin which makes for the enduring esteem from the Bush family. His fate will always be tied directly to that of their camp follower.
