"That's his out..." How can it be an 'out' to say EXACTLY what you mean... and mean what you say? (Probably you are just experiencing a case of 'sour grapes' that none of the other candidates had the GUTS to say it....) "... he'll NEVER find actionable intelligence." Yeah, R-I-G-H-T. (The US had 'actionable intelligence' just a year or so ago. The Special Forces were all loaded on the transport planes, idling on the tarmac in Afghanistan, within FIVE MINUTES of taking off for a strike into PAKISTAN's Tribal Regions to take out al Qaeda's top leadership - and 'maybe' OBL himself - when RUMMIE canceled the attack because he didn't want to ruffle so many feathers in Pakistan!) Or, at least, that's the reason that was given. (Maybe he really just wants to keep the OBL 'boogieman' alive for political uses... who the Hell knows?) Anyway, if we HAD actionable intelligence at least TWICE in the last five years... chances are pretty high we will again. ESPECIALLY if we have a President willing to do the deed.
