    Just another example of:

    1) Bush's desire and fantasy of spreading American power all over the globe and perpetuate its hegemony

    2) Bush's genetic inability to tell the truth

    Who are Petraeus and Crocker trying to fool? The lie and the hidden purposes of this "enduring base" are so transparent and obvious that it is almost comical to see these 2 distinguished gentlemen try to cover up and sound dignified at the same time.

    This base and McClain's prophecy of a hundred year war in Iraq guarantees (if McClain is elected) that more American lives will be lost, more billions of dollars will be poured down that cesspool, and more hatred of Muslims against the USA will grow.
