GRAHAM: Well, it's a sovereign nation and we're hoping that -- we did deals with former Nazis to stabilize Germany and to counter the Soviet Union. I'm not suggesting that. Here's what I am suggesting.

That the 30 votes that Sadr provides to the Maliki government come at a heavy price. Form a newer coalition, deal him out politically. Let him know that there is no place under his control that the Iraqi army cannot go into.

We need to marginalize Sadr militarily, politically and economically. And if Maliki is not willing to do that, our chances of success in Iraq are limited. If he's willing to do that, Sadr will soon get the message.

Sadr is now understanding you can't boycott democracy if Maliki is serious about marginalizing his militia.

1. Um... to state the obvious, how will Maliki even get a quorum without Sadr?

About the only reason he got one to pass the security plan - with Sadr's faction's votes, believe it or not - was with Sadr's faction coming back into parliament to help provide one.

But if Sadr comes deeper into democracy, how can the political boycott be maintained in the first place?

2. Attn: Senator Gramam in order to advance your career

.... you helped drag this country through the sewer of Monica and the Blow Job all
the time yapping about "values." When 2000 came and you and yours were toxic
after White Water you "hid out" because the polling showed that Americans
were sick about the great blow job hunt. Later on you became a "moderate voice"
in the senate and very media friendly but when your masters wanted you back down
in the sewer for Alito you dove head first back into the shit. Remember the phony
tears as Mrs. Alito ran out of the hearing on cue?

Now you talk about "the heavy price in Iraq?" Take your in the closet republican ass
over to Iraq and "talk it out w/ Sadr."

3. Is it really a good idea

for fascist republicans to talk about "doing deals with Nazis"?
