Hey, Carl! Glad to see you back, baby, I was getting worried about ya! Hope you are working up a good appetite for the great meals we are preparing for you next month. Here is a great Louisiana recipe I am recommending for you to CB. You say your "Mea Culpas" before setting down to dine. Crow Creole Ingredients 2 medium onions 2 fresh chilies chopped 2 ribs celery 3 cloves garlic minced ¼ pound butter 16oz. chicken broth 1 can whole tomatoes 1 small can tomato paste 8oz. ketchup 1/8 teaspoon white pepper 1/2 tablespoon Cajun seasoning 1 tablespoons hot pepper sauce 1/2 tablespoons garlic sauce 1/4 tablespoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme 1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice 1 pound (12 pieces, or so) crow breast chopped into bite-sized pieces Preparation Brown the crow breasts in a skillet with butter or oil. When browned, place them in a Sauté onion, celery, chilies and garlic in butter until tender. Add the above ingredients and all of the remaining ingredients to a crock pot and cook on low for 6-7 hours. To serve, heap about 1 cup of rice in the center of the plate, and ladle a generous amount of the sauce around it. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.

Let's stay with my argument for a moment. If we know that Iraq HAD WMDs, because we gave WMDs to Iraq, as Zonder, and others, argue, then the question becomes, not "can we prove they still have them," but "can they prove that they don't have them anymore," doesn't it? Unless you buy the argument that they actually destroyed the WMDs but, dang, the dog ate their homework so they can't prove it. That may satisfy you and Scott Ritter, but the game show host is going "bzzzzt! wrong answer!" This ain't Socratic dialectics here. It's real life, and it's show time. Time for Saddam to throw down, or step aside. If one aircraft carrier is 70,000 tons of diplomacy, then Saddam is staring at 280,000 tons of diplomacy and a lot of Marines, and playing word games is no longer an option.
