And Iraq takes another step in rebuilding their country in the likeness of America so that they can become the 51st state of the union soon.

Soon instead of desert camo, US forces will wear uniforms akin to what NASCAR drivers wear, emblazoned with all kinds of corporate logos.

You're right Lew. I've said it before: today's reality was yesterday's scarry, Orwellian vision.... and the Republican congress is cheering.

Pri.. I mean, Jerks.

I just thought it was a surreal scene with the soldiers with their guns in line.

But, I gotta say, I spent about 8 weeks in Panama in the jungle, way back when, and once every few days a truck would come by with a cooler of coca cola and that was just the best thing.

So, actually, I would bet that it's pretty good for morale after eating Halliburton provided military mess for months. It's just weird.

Exactly Michael. It's just a weird slice of life from Iraq.

Like alot of the pictures I put up, it says something, but I'm not sure what.
