Nostradumbass

I am reminded of the famous soothesayer, Lindsey "5 Rugs for 5 Dollars Bucks"* Graham who EXACTLY ONE MONTH AGO proclaimed:

Within the next weeks, not months, there will be a major breakthrough on the benchmarks regarding political reconciliation. And after the last two weeks of being a reservist, you could see Sunnis and Shia and Kurds taking a second look at Iraq.



And now, as stated below, reality:

"I don't think there is something called reconciliation, and there will be no reconciliation as such..."


In a real world, with real journalism, Graham would be confronted with this and a series of other wildly inaccurate predictions as he never ceases buttressing this cluusterfuck.

But of course, only we can live in the real world. Lindsey lives in "Broderstan".

*Changed for accuracy per reader Lowell.
