OT: but this is just too . . . .
"The United States Agency for International Development is seeking applications for an Assistance Agreement from qualified sources to design and implement a social and economic stabilization program impacting ten Strategic Cities, identified by the United States Government as critical to the defeat of the Insurgency in Iraq. The number of Strategic Cities may expand or contract over time. USAID plans to provide approximately $1,020,000,000 over two years to meet the objectives of the Program. An additional option year may be considered amounting to $300 million at the discretion of USAID. Funds are not yet available for this program."
OMFG! They are not really this clueless, are they?
What is the "economic miracle" that the Bushies are focusing on?
Defense industries and related areas are happy. Housing market seems to be peaking out. Market is up 300-400 points; gas prices are down to around $2.00. What else?

And don't misunderestimate these guys...they may be down today, but they're not out. They have the media (as Ms Coulter has reminded us) and despite their almost unbroken record of jaw-dropping incompetence in nearly every area, they still know how to play the Rubes.
Why doesn't Joe Dante have his own cable news show?

I hear that Mitchell Wade bought 17 million boxes of Thin Mints from Duke Cunningham's granddaughter.

Joe Dante is the movie equivalent of a band like XTC - he's responsible for some brilliant work that should have been massively popular, but the masses just ignore it. Gremlins 2 (Sorry, Joe, couldn't stand the first one, must be the Chris Columbus connection), Innerspace, the totally brilliant Matinee. . . where were the audiences?
[spoiler alert]
I had to watch Homecoming twice just to pick up on how great it really was. Not just the obvious hits on Coulter and Rove, but some of the more subtle touches (notice how the older brother wasn't buried at Arlington - foreshadowing!) The way in which Dante and Sam Hamm subvert the expectations arising from nearly forty post-Night of the Living Dead years. . . genius.
Props to Showtime for scheduling it during their free weekend!

The premise of his movie is a lie, it assumes that a mid east nation is 90% of the world's reserves- open your eyes, the reason Valerie Plame was outed lies in the fact that the Sauds are doing a putsch into Africa and South America.
Brewster was trailing OPEC's money laundering and subversion the emering world of South AMerica and Africa.
