<I am convinced they were there> "True believers" have an extraordinary capacity for ignoring reality and making up excuses when their wild fantasies turn out to be figments of their imagination. Congratulations -- your faith is unsurpassed. We have a government of "true believers" who set foreign policy. You are entitled to your fantasy life, but our politicians get people killed when they indulge their own fantasies. We would be far safer if there were few if any "true believers" in the White House. A foreign policy based on facts and the truth is in our own best interests. Bush will never admit he was wrong -- true believers can't even admit that to themselves. There is always an excuse. You do well as a true believer by replacing one fantasy with another. Saddam sent his WMD to Iran -- that is a very creative and amusing fantasy.
