Let the fun begin! The Sunnis have "a handful of assembly seats and little political clout," the one secular political alliance took only 12% of the vote (which means, boys and girls, that Iraq is all set to become an Islamist state), and the Kurds and Shiites both adamantly believe that their guy should be prime minister. A marginalized minority, civil law and policy that will reflect Islamic law and policy, and strife between the two main political parties...oh yeah, this is definitely a recipe for peace and better relations with the US.
And after spending hundreds of billions of dollars on Iraq to achieve, as far as I can tell, no gain and potentially increased al queda recruitment, GW has the balls to single out social security as the largest looming fiscal crisis? And his solution will do nothing but increase the risk to retirees, pad fund managers pockets with fees, incur a potentially trillian dollar plus changeover cost, and subject every American's retirement to political forces? How does anyone like this guy?! It continues to blow my mind...
