Again, Michael, its which terrorists GST and I were talking about. The vast majoritity of iraqis dont want wahabi fundamentalists running the show. Keep in mind that the country is 60% shiaa, 20% kurd and most sunnis dont want baath, sadddam security leftovers or wahabis. Some of course have aligned themselves with those guys and zarquawi made things really clear today with his allegiance to osama statement. Yes your scenario may play out but the odds are long. There are no great results to be expected from iraq, but FAIR is possible. So stop being a nattering nabob of negativism and i will stop being a bush cheerleader. No more michael moore for you or swiftys for me. FAIR IS OK. mike

There has to be a way for the bright folks who populate this thread (and i consider you one) to get to common ground and to stop dwelling on wmds and religious concepts of good and evil. We are where we are and we will have a president named either bush or kerry and i will treat kerry with utmost respect and we should all do as much as we can to lose are prejudices against either man. Even with your definition of this pres, if reelected he will need all the help he can get. Rumsfeld still has to leave you know and replacement parts for this admin if reelected will be quite and important issue. mike
