re: I think that is what makes Osama such an amazing and effective enemy. He mixes a large degree of reasonableness in with a few very targeted lies, that leaves just about everyone wondering if the Americans will ever win and whether it's not the Americans who are the bad guys.

Yes, that speech was quite good. Even Rove probably tiped his hat.

re: Have you ever wondered if Osama might not be hiding out in Iran?

You have an Iran fetish. At the same time that our government actions are making them more and more powerful. You should rail against Bush and his policy; it's something we should be able to control.

I doubt bin Laden is in Iraq, but who knows? He could be in Detroit.

Osama has very little to do with anything.

There are people using this administration to do the things that we are doing for there own reasons.

The bottom line is:

1. Osama (OBL)has very little to do with any of this stuff.

2. What the administration is doing is bad for our country.

3. We are squandering our wealth trying to get rid of somebody hiding in a cave somewhere.

4. We are squandering our heritage, the protection of our civil liberties, trying to get rid of somebody hiding in a cave.

5. There are better ways of dealing with OBL than the course chosen by this administration.

6. There are more cost effective ways of dealing with OBL.

7. The target should be Osama bin Linden (hiding out in a cave somewhere).

8. The war in Iraq is not a smart way to deal with our problems.
