The military makes contingency plans for all kinds of hypotheticals, always has, always should. That AP reports this as "news" shows how tragically stupid the journalists of America really are.

"The military makes contingency plans for all kinds of hypotheticals, always has, always should" Not just the military, but most business's and corporations have contingency plans - which puts the "talking points" from Pelosi, Clinton and the rest "they don't have an exit plan - what is the exit plan" sort of puts the lie to that doesn't it.

The military makes contingency plans for all kinds of hypotheticals, always has, always should.

Of course they do. The point being here that President Bush asked for plans concerning Iraq because of the war in Afghanistan, in the event Iraq interfered. Much different than Clarke's testimony.

And in the Clarke interview, he states that the Bush administration mentioned various terrorist organizations who might possibly have been involved in 9/11. According to Clarke's own words then, Iraq was not mentioned, contrary to the claims he's making now.
