Again we agree, so long as it's done Constitutionally. I mean, the WMD argument was around in 1990 and now there's this bum's rush to topple him. He's no more nuts and no more dangerous than Gaddafi once was.

I'm concerned that the tragedy of 9-11 is simply being exploited. Police powers in the US have been increased and not a whit of visible gain has been achieved and reported. Now a small cadre of hawks who've long wanted SH gone can get their wish simply by making him sound ominously tied to OBL, without a whit of evidence.

You've always seemed an intelligent guy.... isn't it obvious why folks get a bit leery about what's really up?

After all, we've weathered just fine having nukes in the hands of such sober, sane pacifists as Mao Zedong, Stalin, and a few other subhuman defecates. And this suggests the completion of a nuke for a first timer, is nearly a 2 decade process: mtholyoke.edu

It's the sudden rush that smells like a rotted carp & limburger sammich at a sulphur factory.
