I hope he has a back-up plan, for a job,

as Shep Smith shocked his network, Bullshit Mountain, and his Pub Party, (one and the same), by reporting some actual facts on his FOX News(?) show.

Fox News' Shep Smith bucked his network's conservative ideology by taking on Republicans who are pressing Obama on Iraq. The president has faced pressure to take aggressive action in response to the extremist Islamist insurgency that has seized two Iraqi cities and is bearing down on Baghdad.
"Are we about to be drawn back into a conflict in Iraq?" Smith asked. "The same people who 12 years ago told us this will be quick, this will be easy, this will be inexpensive, they will see us as liberators, it's the right thing to do, are now telling us, 'It's the right thing to do.' What's the endgame? Who's thought this through?"
Smith argued the Iraq war provided a valuable history lesson: the George W. Bush administration led the U.S. into a war that exacted a heavy toll on all sides of the conflict for many years.
Talking Points Memo notes that Smith later told Fox News' Chris Wallace that he hasn't forgotten "being bamboozled" by the Bush administration's justification for invading Iraq. Wow! The voice of reason on FOX? Rupert Murdoch is gonna be PISSED!
 At least GW's Mission was Accomplished. Oil went from $14/barrel, to over $140. Who da thunk? All it took was trillions from US taxpayers, thousands dead and wounded, and the American economy being trashed, while destabilizing the Mideast. Thanks again, GW and GOP. You should be SO proud...
