As for the comments of the stupid ass senators, like I said this AM, I think our leadership is intellectually bankrupt. So now all the the democratic leadership is intellectually bankrupt. Man you really are a genius in you own mind. Tell me, is there anyone in this world who disagrees with your position on Iraq, who you think has an acceptable IQ. Don't you allow the possibility that one of them might be as intelligent as you are. Like I said to Ten, I don't think Saddam is a sharing kind of guy plus I think you all have exaggerated the numbers of WMD he has. That makes a lot of sense. I am suppose to trust my life to a "I think" The paranoia of the American public has been elevated to great heights and most people now are convinced Saddam has nukes in every palace. Hey, I never knew that. We had better call up Tenet, and bring him up to speed. am not using innuendo......what I am saying is that its Bush who took the lead on this issue and now he has to follow through and straighten out the problems that have erupted. I don't see how my saying that at all compares with what I am accusing Bush and company of doing. Which issue, Iraq, or NATO. Germany and France took the lead in breaking up NATO. And that is the point. You want to blame Bush for breaking up NATO, when Germany and France are off the wall here. Lets quit arguing, draw straws to see which countries are going to do what, and get it done. Frankly, whichever country is doing the work should be sble to chose the methods. This arguing is worse than the action. I absolutely agree....but I think you understand Bush has handled Iraq in such a way that its forced Germany, France et al into new roles. And he could well have opened up a can of worms. If you agree that the country doing the disarming should be able to chose the methods, then why on earth are you saying that GW has to do it the way France or Germany want. If Germ. and Fr. want to chose the methods, they should also do the work. Things were going to change anyway sometime in the future but Bush's actions speeded up the process and its happening now at a very inopportune time. Still going with the ole, Bush is rushing to war bit. I know of no president who has taken this long, and engendered this much discussion, before he actually went to war. Certainly Bill didn't before he went to Kosovo, or when he bombed Iraq in 98. This has been going on long enough. It is time to do something.
