I guess we have a kinder gentler war.
Before I joined the Bush camp in the early primaries I wrote to Bush and explained my problems with his father's policies. I offered money time and advertising space on my ranch if he would explain to me how his presidency would be diferent. I got a nice photo card of the family for a response.
Since I didn't see another viable candidate in the republican fiels I got behind Bush anyway but with substantial reservation. Right now I'm thinking that my chickens have come home to roost. BUT at least he ain't Gore. I would probably be living in Israel already if Gore had gotten in.
I believe Bush has the smarts and courage to recognise that he has been lead down the garden path by the State Dept. and take control of this war. Perhaps he can dredge up enough fire power out of the clintoon regime's generals to win a war in the stone age land of Afghanistan. We shall see.
With all due respect Mercy, I don't think there is such a thing as a kind or gentle war. I am sure the 1 0r 2 million refugees in Afganistan would agree with me.
We should either declare war and send in thousands of ground troops, and quit fooling around with them, or get out. Regards
