>>So I must confess to never having seen something I would label "a logical" argument from them.<<

I asked you once before whether you actually listen to the speeches and read the essays, or whether you just read what the New York Times says about them, and you got all huffy.

I still think it's a fair question.

A lot gets lost in the paraphrasing. And some of the paraphrasers are malicious, e.g., Maureen Dowd. She has a way with words, but I see her as a humor writer, sort of like a left wing Dave Barry. Was very surprised to see that people take her seriously.

As for me, I sat and listened to Powell's entire speech to the UN. I listen to most of his speeches. I listen to every speech that Bush makes. I listen to Rumsfeld. I read what Cheney writes. I listen to Wolfowitz and read what he writes. I listen to Rice and read what she writes.

They make the same case that Pollock makes.
