Searle,

It is quite obvious to me that scoundrels have run the US for some number of years. Take Bill Clinton for example--the United States' first "black" president. He didn't exactly chuck his administration full of minorities. He was supposed to be the protector of the environment but had no compunctions about spraying the former Yugoslavia full of depleted uraniam shells. And especially Kosovo--I thought they were our friends! Oh, I get it--once they start glowing in the dark, we can more easily avoid hitting them!

Al Qada has denied any involvement in the Bali blast. The small, ineffective attack on the US consulate there smacks of fishyness. Hard to believe anything these days--it may all be misdirection.

I think if the US pulled back from the Iraqi war talk, the chances would increase that Saddam could be ousted by his own people. As it is now they are united against imperialists from Minnesota, Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula.

Searle,
I tend to believe that it is extremely difficult to determine their agenda. However, whenever someone starts in on bush about how he is destroying the economy here in the US, I just say, "Well, I guess Bush should just step down since he did not win the election anyway, and let Al Gore start running things." There eyes get very big, and say "Oh NO! Not That!" I have always been fascinated by the fact that all the polls done by the press still had Bush winning in Florida, but the democrats still think he stole the election there. What do we have for an alternative? After all, they are just a bunch of politicians. Cannot get any of them to say what they think or what our gubmet should do to mend our economy and stop Saddam from working with others to do damage to Israel and the US. Go figure!
