Dan, when ever one hears something, there's an old saying, "consider the source".

Now why would we want to do that? What was the source of the information that there were mobile weapons labs? The Source was none other than Curveball. Curveball was guy who was known to be unreliable, alcoholic and mentally unstable.

Look, suppose the mentally challenged guy down the street tells me that when I'm away, the UPS man is drilling my wife.

Now I guess If I popped the UPS man the next time I saw him, you would say that I had every right to do that. Because I had information that he was doing my wife. But who was the source of that information. If the guy is a known alcoholic with mental problems and reliability problems then who is responsible for my actions? The unreliable source...or the one who relied on an unreliable source?

I'd say you'd better find another reason for the invasion. This one isn't making the Bush administration look too smart...since they popped Iraq on the word of an alcoholic...I'd say consider the source...Mr. Bush...and then stand trial before the American people.
