The Chickens have home to roost, so to speak. The corrupt Republican smear & scare mongering juggernaut has been sacked!

A strong Democratic onslaught has left the "Quarterback" limping badly, and his "Receivers" are scattered all over the political playing field -- running in all directions like chickens without wings.

Throw in Pastor Ted Haggard's Methamphetamine laced gay sex scandal, and not even a staged "Saddam Finale" could rescue the masters of "deceit and hypocrisy," -- the self ordained "Friends of God."

Over the last three weeks the Republican strategy has been basically a chorus of fear mongering and the raining of shameless, desperate and Racist ads into our living rooms. Here goes:

A win for the Dems is a win for terrorists!

Nancy Pelosi is a "Liberal Bitch" from "Gay San Francisco!"

Oh my God! Charlie Rangel (a black Congressman) will be running the Ways & Means Committee!

The Dems will raise your taxes!

20 million "filthy" immigrants have invaded us and are tearing this country asunder!

Profane and blasphemous inflammations!

The American people are not that stupid after all, they are tired of being treated like fools, and have issued a strong rebuke to this arrogant and grossly incompetent Republican administration.

Never in my life have I ever witnessed a political machine so perfectly "precisioned," yet so dangerously flawed, but as the wise have said before -- "a thief has forty days!"

The story of the Republican party in the last six years has similarities to the proverbial boy who liked to cry "Wolf!" pretending that he was going to be eaten by a wolf. When people came running to help him, they found the boy laughing because he was not really in danger. This happened a number of times until people stopped believing him when he cried, "Wolf!" Finally, the boy was attacked by a real wolf and no one came to save him because they all thought he was just crying wolf.

The real wolf in this instance is the Democratic Party and the fed up people are Americans(excluding the right wing nuts).

The people have had enough of this charade and have clearly indicated that they want change.

It's neither a total Democratic avalanche nor is it a revolution, but a clear sign that the majority are fed up with being hoodwinked, cajoled and demeaned by the masters of deceit.

Having said the above, now what?

The primary issue at hand is Iraq -- It is very clear that this ill-conceived and badly executed war is being poorly managed and a looming confrontation between George Bush and Congress is simmering.

Sources indicate that this government, faced with a "Vietnam" like failure, is pondering partitioning Iraq into three autonomous regions. The Baker commission, a bi-partisan "Iraq study group" set up by Congress and led by former Secretary of State James Baker, to study the hopeless situation in Iraq, is set to recommend to the Bush government to split Iraq into three regions, namely Kurdish, Shi'ite, and Sunni.
