Jim Jeffords, Republican turned Democrat turned Independent speaks out about Iraq and Bush, and it's not positive. Luckily it's also not intelligent or persuasive:
Jeffords: I think [the war in Iraq] was all done to get--all that's the end result is going to be some oil agreement and the loss of life that we had. And the cost of it, to many was just a re-election move and they're going to try to live off it and probably start another war. Wouldn't be surprised next year, probably in Iran.
The author of the article, James Taranto, then opines:
So let's see if we have this straight: According to Jeffords, the president went to war in Iraq to "control the country's oil supply" and to help his own re-election chances. This doesn't quite jibe with what happened, which is that Bush was re-elected even though Iraq's oil industry, which America doesn't control at any rate, is operating at far from full capacity and U.S. gasoline prices are quite high compared with recent years.

I believe that James Jeffords is a student of alleged Logic, I believe, and has studied Spinoza, and other Philosophers, and Ayn Rand, and Other So Called Philsophers who have majored in Using Logic to Reach solutions to Why and How and Where is the answer to the Great questions of Philosophy, even to the Point of Bringing in to a Relationship the anger against Someone because of Faith in a God, as I believe that James Jeffords was a roomate of Mine in the MIlitary, in Italy, and so I couold not get along with him and requested to move to another room, he if the same James Jeffords was not open to Faith in Jesus or the Pictures of Him in History and MYTHOLOGY, or in any fashion but Logic was his Field of Endeavor in Spare time, if this is so, I would like to hear his logic regarding Bush's agenda and see if he is open to Truth or Political Expedie ncy ingrained in Continuous Critisizm of an opponent in POlitics.
