" I realize that. The distinction I was making between us is that something is leaked anonomysly to the lefty times and you take it as gospel and I don't" I don't think you do.....you give every impression that you are behind the curve and cover it with phony righteous indignation. Stories have historically been leaked to the Times because they have the best reputation for integrity. No literate person questions that. Such leaks are often trial balloons to see how the public and the world reacts and it's my opinion that this is what the leak was. It gave no specific timetable but rather generalities of things that would be fairly obvious to military strategists....but of course you didn't read it so you wouldn't know that. Many people think it was leaked by Rumsfeld or Rice. It is noteworthy that you hide behind your naivete and cannot give an opinion on how you would remove Saddam without an invasion but yet you were adamant in tone when you said Bush would do it without killing thousands. What is this, expertise in one area but not the other? Sounds like a party hack.... "Hating our leaders is not democracy. It is just hating our leaders The word hate is not in my vocabulary and you are lying with such an attribution. I may dislike and I told you I don't like Bush but don't play the part of the phony patriot and characterize those that don't march to your drummer as haters. That's a despicable trait and I resent it.
