Thanks :-)

We are not out of the woods until they are all dead or captured....we've done a darn good job so far. My tagline buddy says...

"MUNICH (Reuters) - Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on Saturday defended his country's first-strike military pre-emption policy by saying weapons of mass destruction were not snowballs.

"If someone is going to throw a snowball at you, you may not want to act pre-emptively. You can afford to take the blow and do something after the fact," he told a annual security conference in Munich.


"As you go up the scale from snowballs to the weapon of mass destruction, at some point...there's not going to be a snowball in your face but a biological weapon that can kill tens of thousands of human beings...The greater the danger, the lower the threshold for action."
