"saying that today's attack is a reason to spend billions on missile defense is an insult to all our intelligences"
I did not hear him say that, BUT it is not an insult to our intelligences (although it sounds like bad timing). You libs are so sure that nobody will hurt us in the ways that the administration feels they might it leads me to believe you have very limited intelligence. Afghanistan and Pakistan already have missile delivery systems. Not good enough to get here, but they will be in a FEW years. It is absolutely unbelievable to me that you guys feel so damn safe, especially after yesterday. Can you not see what these people will do? Your stupid and simplistic statement "They don't want to use weapons that have a return address on them" is soooooo naive that it is unbeleivable. I am no expert, but could EASILY see a scenario where somenting like Iran could shoot one off from Iraq for instance. What a mess that would be. I would rather save our people and then figure out what those crazies are up to, and I guess you would rather have it the other way around.
To make the statements that you and Communist Spirit do suggests that you think our own leaders are JUST AS EVIL as the people who did the damage yesterday OR that you are smarter than they are. Both of those assumptions are ridiculous imo. Feel free to offer a 3rd suggestion if those two are not the reasons you slam our president and defense community's plans for defending our country in the FUTURE. Go way out on a limb and figure we will be around for another 50 plus years, not just one or two. It will take a while to perfect a system like that, so it is not a particularly good strategy to start on it AFTER someone nukes SF or NY or DC or LA or ANY OF OUR CITIES.
I for one KNOW that GWB and Rumsfeld have our best interests in mind, and although I view myself as relatively smart (compared to the masses) I do not even think I am in the same league as the men and women running our defense and intelligence community.
Rumsfeld, Rice, Powell, Cheney, Bush - Idiots or evil, what is your pick? I know what Communist boy's position is (he thinks they are evil), but you seem smarter than he does (by a long way). |
