For 5 years and counting...
These liberals have made a full time job
of 'mis-underestimating' G. W. Bush.

Agreed Mike.

A couple of things will happen with this issue.

The first thing is it will be delayed passed the '06 elections.

The second is that as time goes by and scrutiny over the deal reveals no security risk to the U.S., politicians will look for a way out of the hysteria they fell for or into.

Last, the president will prove his critics wrong again and those who aligned themselves with the Democrats and the unions will feel kinda silly, except for a select few who remain adamant in their objection. I don't blame them, some have the best of intentions, they want us to remain safe from another 9/11 and that is commendable yet sometimes fears are without merit.

We will always need these people and their objections, one day we may be asleep at the wheel and they will be there waving the red flag and quite possibly save us from our own inability to recognize a real threat.
