Or "reins", as the case may be.

P.S.: Sorry, I don't usually nitpick on spelling, but when I see it twice...

Ted, <Only because the GOP did not pull the reigns in on Mr. Bush soon enough.>

When should have the reigns been pulled in? Right after the Taliban kicked the bucket? Is that when Bush should have "declared peace" and moved on to other issues? That in itself takes a bigger measure of courage than going to war with Iraq. (And no, I don't equate denial with courage.)


Don't you reinvent history. There was no reason to go after Saddam then or now. Mr. Bush created a reason.

And stop with the courage trash......there is no courage in going after a country that is much weaker. Courage is doing the hard thing that causes pain and suffering for the person invoking the courage. Mr. Bush sleeps well at nite and doesn't have to worry that he will die at the end of this war.

The right uses words like courage, honor, integrity and patriotism like the rest of us use toilet paper. So chill with the courage crap....its not selling this war to me.
