(1) This confuses Cold War geopolitics with post-Cold War decadence. The
Dems used to start wars and run budget deficits, and the Reps used to end
wars and run budget surpluses. It's the reverse nowadays. (2) Give $auron
another four years, and the war *will* widen... and they will target a
nuclear-armed Iran. Too horrible to contemplate.
