Calling other people "morons" because they think a war is coming has nothing to do with whether you support the war or not.

I am always so surprised when posters post the same thing over and over and think it will not be noticed! Nadine and I had discussed this just last January. Since then, I have seen several continue to trash Carl's record while burnishing their own...

He has nothing to apologize for because he was never wrong. (Except we both thought there would be no war because we both thought George Bush or the people around him would NOT be that stupid. Who knew! Ongoing Dumbo-Eruptions provide proof each day.)) Other than that... what was he wrong on? Remember he was only wrong once while you were repeatedly wrong by trying to predict the invasion date our Tank patrol was to be festooned in the streets. I've never seen Bilow lie, exaggerate or get his facts wrong! He always provides documentation. So what has he been wrong about? (With links supporting facts, please.) Rascal @SIKnowsAll.com But most importantly. The choice was never between war or no war. It was between war and continued inspections.

If all the roads to peaceful resolution are closed and therefore any attempts at negotiation are doomed to failure, and if Saddam sends the inspectors back empty-handed, vanquished and ridiculed, will only war bring the desired solution?" I think we need Karl Rove on this one too. It seems the definition is handy if the weapons inspectors fail. sends the inspectors back empty-handed, vanquished and ridiculed Well let's not do that. Let's say that by the time we finish the last inspection we have to start over again at the beginning because something might be hidden at the first inspection now. So we have to stay. We are looking, we are looking, we are looking. Lets increase the number of weapons inspectors 100 fold. (200 X, 300 X whatever) With that many weapons inspectors there we have to support them. Build 30 Holiday Inns or Embassy Suites. Stock the cafeteria withStarbucks, Papa Johns and Hunan Wok. Let Wallmart run the PX. Build a couple of hospitals. Now here's where we need Karl. We have just invented the Third Way. What do we call this outfit? What kind of LOGO, uniforms? How does this play out over 2003? Can we stretch it to cover 2004, too? Rascal@callingRove.com SI knows all. Great documentation. Rascal @IWasSeriousItWasAGoodPlan.com
