On February 8, 2005, the Doughy Pantload bet Middle East expert Juan Cole that in two years' time, Iraq would not be in a civil war, and that the majority of Iraqis and Americans would agree the war was worth it. Even though Cole didn't take him up on the $1000 wager (note to Mr. Pantload: decent people don't bet on things other people get killed in), the two years are up. A better wager would have required the perceptive Mr. Pantload to enlist in the Army if he lost, but his prognosticating services are far too valuable here on the home front to put his rear end in harm's way.

Mr. Pantload: Don't bet on something people get killed in, and more importantly, don't even try to win a debate against a Wolverine! Just couldn't resist, sorry.
