Take a number and wait your turn. :p
Hitler's scheme to take over all of Europe and expel/kill everyone not German was done in only by incompetence.
Fox just did a story about Gen. McPeak comparing Pres. Bill as a new Joe McCarthy... then they showed footage of Gene McCarthy. Indicative of Fox's cumulative IQ and non-credibilty - as if any more evidence was required.

Shit, I haven't even had first coffee yet.
The first and biggest mistake of the thousands that came afterwards was the mistake of invading in the first place. But we'll just look over that tremendous, gigantic, bonehead blunder.
The Bush administration went into Iraq for the same reasons that the banks went into the sub prime market. GREED!!!! It didn't matter that there wasn't any good reason to go. It didn't matter that there were tremendous risks. There was "gold in them thar deserts" and we wanted it, consequences be damned.
Iraq is just one huge ugly symbol for the failings of the neocon policies of this administration. Stupidity and greed!!!!
I finally tried Hulu. I grant that it's done better than YouTube, but who really wants to sit hunched in front of a computer display to watch TV shows?
I note that one frequent way in which people argue for the proposition that poor execution, rather than an underlying flawed concept, are at the root of the Iraq disaster is to simply observe that mistakes were made in Iraq.
this summarizes mccain's campaign platform quite nicely.
Even Yglesias gets in on the fun:

Referring to the Iraq invasion as a 'flawed concept' is to understate.
To be or not to be...that is the question.
That, and: where's my money?

There are two kinds of colonialist literature. One implies that if only we did it right, better, we could have done some good. Think "Heart of Darkness." The other criticizes the colonialist project, arguing that there is no "good" way to go into a culture, smash shit up, and then rebuild it. Think Things Fall Apart.
As far as Iraq is concerned, Goldberg is a Conradian, but we here are generally Achebian.
Meanwhile, it's 1972 on the 10@10 marathon!
The other J. Goldberg is funny too:
"Mamet has committed the sin of free-thinking in a world that defines it as "ideological rigidity" while dubbing conformity "diversity." Already, critics are saying his work is slipping. Soon, they will say his work was never that great to begin with (that's what they’ve been doing to Dennis Miller for his heresy)."
My fav Jonah Goldberg analgrams:
"Beg lard, jog hon!"
"HA! Born joggled."
"Hand job logger."
"God, he gnarl job."

Hunched, I say. I've got a 61" TV. NBC's view of family TV viewing night:

Speaking of the doughy pantload, here's a liberal fascist
Winston Churchill visited Rome. "I could not help being charmed by Signor Mussolini's gentle and simple bearing, and by his calm, detached poise in spite of so many burdens and dangers," Churchill said in a press statement. Italian fascism, he said, had demonstrated that there was a way to combat subversive forces; it had provided the "necessary antidote to the Russian virus."
"If I had been an Italian I am sure I should have been entirely with you from the beginning to the end of your victorious struggle against the bestial appetites and passions of Leninism," Churchill told the Romans. It was January 20, 1927.

OK, if I made a mistake about you, I am sorry. But if you are going to throw out flippantly negative comments like that about our candidates in this climate, you are going to draw fire.

"What the world is confronting five years after the invasion—the mess that Gen. David Petraeus is attempting to clean up today—was almost entirely preventable."
Er, maybe we shouldn't have invaded and occupied Iraq in the first place, asshole!
Oh, at least, yes.
I should clarify: two major threads of colonialist critique in literature. I'm not talking about Kipling and his ilk.
I've always been struck by the fact that the people who yammer the loudest about "personal responsibility" always seem to mistake responsibility for guilt when it comes to actually taking responsibility.
