Strange Bedfellows Dep't: Sens. Brownback and Biden

About as different as can be, the Republican senator from Kansas and the Democratic senator from Delaware now have the same plan on Iraq: split it up into three loosely federated regions with one religious sect in each.

It is interesting to see how Senator's from across the aisle are beginning to agree on something. Let's hope they encourage their respective parties to come together and clean up the mess we're in.

I noticed you don't have a badge up, so I was wondering if MoJo had heard about or was already nominated for the Blogger's Choice Awards? (http://www.bloggerschoiceawards.com) There's a category for "Best Political Blog" that I think the Mojo Blog could be a front runner in. If you are nominated you should put up a badge to get your readers to vote you to the top. If MoJo's not nominated, you can nominate yourself or I'd be happy to do it. If you win, you can get sent to the awards ceremony.

Best of luck, and keep the stories coming!

This is segregation. I guess that integration just doesn't work. Liberalism is a failure. Who gave that liberal Biden authority to split up another country based upon 1880's thinking of segregation? This is typical liberal arrogance that they know what is best for third world people. Is there a liberal double standard at work here?

Well, um, Goober (perfect name), seems like uberCon Brownback's on board for this too. Conservatism is a failure.

Liberalism and conservatism are both failures. Congressman Ron Paul is the future. No more American Empire. We should not meddle in other countries. Bring the troops home from throughout the world today. More country, less Empire. Remember Rome.

This idea was the thing that made me notice Biden last year in the initial debates. It put him head and shoulders above all the other candidates on what to do in Iraq which is one of those artificial hodgepodges like Yugoslavia that Western powers slapped together way back when.

I think Austin points up the problem of logistics. Some "re-locating" would certainly bring down current friction. There would have to be a UN-mandated task force of people specialized in workng with refugees to accompany the transfer of populations.

I know that this is not a "religious" blog, but I think that one of the potential resources that could be tapped is the hold that religious leaders have over their respective congregations and once the regionalization has been negotiated, religious leaders could really help in what will be a very trying period by "guiding" their followers through the transition.
