Diplomats to be Ordered to Serve in Iraq - or quit

Fun for all in the Emerald City - the 'Green Zone'.


Well, we have a history of forcing Diplomats to go on overly dangerous assignmeents that they despise, or force them to leave thae position.

Didn't work well during the 'Nam in the late 60's or in West Africa through the 70's into the 80's, so why will this be all 'flowers and candy' today?
At least they still have the best trigger-happy Mercenaries that money can bribe looking out for their 'aledged' safety.

We're gonna see an end to another wave of Professional Diplomats driven from service, maybe Bush can get a gaggle
of Evangelicals from one of his supportive brain rinsed (washing is hard work - rinsing is for simpletons) yes massa goons
from all those wonderfully accredited Bible Schools to carry his water, and impose their beliefs on all them Wacky Iraqi's.

You know - when you get yourself deep in a hole, you're supposed to put down the shovel and stop digging.

I thought Diplomats were picked by the President?

What do these people do exactly? It says they volunteer just like Military service?

Diplomats are mostly lawyers.
Bush finally did it. He sent in the lawyers!
