if this is the "real stuff" then I'm not so worried because it's treatable with antibiotics. Only one person died. More people got dengue fever in hawaii over the past few weeks through mosquitos. Now that's scary

Three guys, a Canadian, Osama bin Laden and George W. Bush are out walking together one day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it.

"I will give each of you each one wish, that's three wishes total," says the Genie.

The Canadian says, "I am a farmer, my dad was a farmer, and my son will also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada."

With a blink of the Genie's eye, 'POOF' the land in Canada was forever made fertile for farming.

Osama bin Laden was amazed, so he said, "I want a wall around Afghanistan or Iraq, so that no infidels, Jews or Americans can come into our precious states."

Again, with a blink of the Genie's eye, 'POOF' there was a huge walls around Afghanistan and Iraq.

George W. Bush (A former civil engineer), asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell me more about this wall."

The Genie explains, "Well, it's about 15,000 feet high, 500 feet thick and completely surrounds these countries; nothing can get in or out---virtually impenetrable."

George W. Bush says, "Fill them with equal portions of concrete and pork fat."

American investigators probing anthrax outbreaks in Florida and New York believe they have all the hallmarks of a terrorist attack - and have named Iraq as prime suspect as the source of the deadly spores.

In the past, we have put out word to Saddam that we will use "special weapons" (nukes) against him if he unleashes chemical or biological weapons against us. Time for us to honor the agreement!

As much as I'd like to see Iraq, Afghanistan, and any other terrorist harboring nations turned into parking lots, I doubt that Bush Jr will honor the vow made by Bush Sr. Despite being united, this war still reeks of the modern liberal environment. We shouldn't have to apologize when one of our bombs miss. The Afghanistan citizens should be greatful we haven't nuked them. If bombs miss, so what? I have news for all these apologists out there.

People die in wars. DEAL WITH IT!

C'mon now. We're talking "Operation Enduring Sensitivity" here. All our responses must now be measured. Forget about idle threats we made in the past. That was then and this is now.

Bin Laden killed 6,000 of us and did 100's of billions of dollars in property and economic damage. How many have we killed in response? Maybe 20 to 100 by accident? Hell, we don't even send the National Guard to our borders.

Only one of us has been killed, so far, by these anthrax attacks. About all we could get a "concensus" to do in response is FEED THEM TO DEATH!

We'll drop so much food on them that they'll have extra to set on fire.

>sarcasm< >humor< LOL.

I agree with you, I have no sympathy. None! The more that we talk of minimizing civilian casualties, the more that we undermine the war effort. We have got to make an example of the Afghanis and destroy other countries that get in the way. We gave peace a chance. It didn't work. We must show no mercy!!

The sordid fact is that the Taliban could not care less whether civilians die, nor can the civilians do squat about the Taliban now. So it wouldn't matter.

I think it's very droll about the "oops, our bomb missed. So sorry!"

It's really too bad that 7,000 dead Americans has still not mobilized us to true war. It may happen after we have taken some more hits.

The word "hawk" is being used as though it has some kind of an irrational connotation - sort of like "Clinton basher."
