They didn't have a clue. They all just "felt" it. They "imagined" victory scenarios and parades of freedom and people dancing in the street as George Bush spread freedom dust all across the land. Fucking President Peter Pan!

Actually, it's worse even than that. They were, in fact, largely RIGHT that they could liberate Iraq and most of the populace DID dance in the streets. Remember Saddam's statue being torn down? BUT they then decided they could disband the old govt utterly and turn the inhabitants of the world's oldest nation into wards of the state and guinea pigs for the creation of the first Randian Democracy, and particularly, that their present culture and institutions deserved no respect whatsoever.
And there was also the fact that they then proceeded to steal everything that was sent over there, and everything that was there to boot.
Pure, fucking Republican arrogance and crooked mismanagement, that's why we didn't prevent 9/11 and failed in Iraq and are now bankrupt and facing a Depression.
But we gotta vote for McCain. Obama once knew a terrorist and McCain wears a flag on his lapel
