No thanks. As I've said, I've seen that treasonous document (as in alleging the Bush Admin is) floating around the internet with various subtle & not so subtle versions of the alleged Bush Admin's nefarious plans. It seems to pop up every now & again on left wing sites & newspaper op/ed pieces that are about as credible as the National Enquirer. The op/ed piece you cite is simple left wing propaganda. His allegations about the main premise the Bush Admin is using for war are completely false, but necessary to lead readers into his line of BS about the plan for global domination. The lies & half truths needed to weave a tale that makes this global domination plan seem plausible is simply ridiculous. "This war, should it come, is intended to mark the official emergence of the United States as a full-fledged global empire,....." "It would be the culmination of a plan 10 years or more in the making, carried out by those who believe the United States must seize the opportunity for global domination, even if it means becoming the "American imperialists" that our enemies always claimed we were....... " Just because some left wing op/ed piece spins a tall tale attempting to give credence to this plan only serves to give me more skepticism....... not to mention the large holes in his version of events that one could drive the 1st infantry through....... the repercussions of such a plan would be sufficient to squelch it in its' tracks......... global terrorism on a scale never before seen...... global war....... perhaps even global nuclear war....... our laws, the constitution, etc., would stop this thing cold if there was the slightest credibility to it....... unless you somehow think that members of the Bush Admin are even more out of touch with reality than Saddam........ and the only way for this to work would be for the Bush Admin to overthrow our gov't to pull this off. Again, if there were any real truth to it, nearly every politician, most Americans, hell, nearly every citizen on earth & every media outlet globally would be insisting on Impeachment & criminal prosecution IMMEDIATELY! No if's and's or but's about it. "why does the administration seem unconcerned about an exit strategy from Iraq once Saddam is toppled? Because we won't be leaving.* "* Another set of bold faced lies. There have been congressional & other strategic hearings, live media reports from top officials, ET AL, that have discussed our exit strategy publicly & frequently. There will be variables that will effect the precise timing, but they will leave & Iraq will have their own government. I'd debunk the rest of that op/ed slander/hit piece, but it is too radical, too full of lies, half truths & it is so one sided to be given any credibility whatsoever. JMHO
