Hyperbole is wasted on the humorless.

Fine, I would settled for one firing and one pension stripping, and I would have supported your Middle East adventure. You went along with a foreign war without so much as one dissmisal-- I hope I am never as cynical about the United States governmetn as you are.

You're either part of the problem, or part of the solution, Jack. Either you're talking about serious solutions to real problems, or you're just another moron wasting the grownups' time.

I know John Galt. John Galt is a personal friend of mine. You, sir, are no John Galt.

Hmm. Your approach reminds me of the Queen of Hearts' "Sentence first, verdict afterwards," because the process of identifying who (if anyone) should be held accountable for 9/11 would take years. So you'd either (a) accept that the United States would do nothing in its defense, or (b) just fire somebody for s**ts and grins.

Ol' John Galt demands his pound of flesh as the price of supporting a war--he ignores the actual merits of whether or not we should go to war with Iraq, he just demands that SOMEONE get fired and stripped of his pension, and he's cool with a war.
