You embarrass yourself sir.

I take exception to the first sentence in the last line of your emotional tirade.

Don't speak of the lives of brave men when you are not one.

My friend, you are not reading the signs

No your reading too much in to them.

Dropping out of Afghanistan and going to war in Iraq, that's chasing OBL????? What planet are you living on?

"Dropping out of Afghanistan", is something that never happened in the real world, but perhaps it did on your planet.

but OBL caused a lot of personal pain for New Yorkers, and catching that sucker is all I wanted.

To be frank, that's pretty foolish. Capturing or killing OBL would be great but he's one man. If we got him, but didn't do anything else to fight Al Qaeda than we would be in a worse position than we are now.

I'd have a lot more respect for Bush if he had made the major effort of his administration the capture of OBL, rather than the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.

You can only have one major effort?

We went after Saddam, that doesn't mean we ever stopped going after Al Qaeda.
