THE WAR WILL BE OVER BY MARCH 28

Of this year, that is, according to UPI Hears. For you math-challenged out there, that means the war will have to get started up pretty soon. John Prados at TomPaine, a site that keeps spamming me under the mistaken impression that I'm one of its fellow lefties, thinks it will start this very weekend. His logic is flawed--he thinks Bush will start the war because the Iraq situation refutes his North Korea position rather than confirm it, which is actually the case--but he may be right in spite of it. I guess we'll know by Sunday.
