" So whether Iraqis flew into my buildings or not, is hardly pertinent to the serious problems and threats at hand. "'.. So you made a mess of the " War On Terror " and are now trying to find justification for it?Justifying mistakes is not good policy,as it only undermines the importance of changing a bad policy and getting on the proper path to victory,whatever that may be. This is the problem Bush faces today.He doesn’t have what it takes to admit failure and change course.This is why it is important for him to be defeated,again<g>,and have the country move in the right direction,or at the very least,a different direction. If America this time elects a man who has by all accounts been a dismal failure,then it will reflect badly on both democracy and America's leadership in world affairs,not to mention how scary this admin can be without the prospect of defeat holding its feet to the fire. I was responding to the acrimonious retort that strongly suggested I was not sympathetic to the devastation the 2001-09-11 brought to the US,and the continued assertion that the invasion of Iraq was a proper response to that attack because it was some how..some way..any way..connected,which it was not.Not at all in fact.
