Ho-Jo,

Re: Reduce this problem to your own home and family. What would you do to protect your home/family? The magnitude of the problem is immense.

This silly and banal debating trick is called reducto ad absurdum. Face facts. The likelihood of Osama Bin Laden coming out of the dark to attack your family or mine in the middle of the night is nil. This is a classic straw man argument that is only used by people who have no facts behind them. Feeling naked, fellah?

Re: "I for one applaud President Bush and his "stick".

I, for another, wish he would keep the damn snake in his pants. His game of "Mine's bigger than yours" is making a lot of arguments that Bush has the intellect of a fifth-grader appear to be right on the mark.

Re: If you think you are not sleeping at night our President has a very large "home" and a very large "family" to protect.

Gimme a frikkin' break, Joe. I'm feeling sleepless in Seattle because this world class a-hole is about to start WW III because "it'd be dang good fer bidness, 'n my buddies are all fer it."

Some of us realize the Bush is a completely clueless favored son who never ever read these words:

"I don't know what the weapons World War III will be fought with, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." -- Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
