I think if you're going to talk about someone you ought to ping them

I was saying he is no friend to us, to our war effort, was undermining trust at a vital time

What vital time? When would you suggest I do that? Considering even the most conservative estimates from the neocons are now in the 10-20 year range for troops in Iraq and it looks as if there's going to be another 'action' in the war on terror (which in itself will last for a generation) on the horizon, just when would you suggest I start asking questions? Or dare I not ask questions of the great W?

But don't you worry, the die is cast. We're 'all war, all the time' now. After Iraq will come Liberia, then Syria, maybe Iran, heck if we can swing it we could get North Korea (the only nation besides Saudi Arabia that presents a direct threat to this nation) on the fly

Oh my dear, I forgot my manners and didn't ping you. Please forgive me. Yep, I think this will last a generation but maybe not. This "vital time" refers to a state of war and a state of maybe siege as there are forces about who wish to kill us, fly our planes into big buildings, bomb people around the globe. I am beginning to think of Islamo fascist addicted to bombing. I have yet to see anything they do that is helpful. Even the fascists in Italy ran the trains on time. Even the fascists in spain sort of kept a clean country. Even the Singapore government doesn't allow smoking and depositing butts on the street. But these people seem to do nothing but plan the next bomb, the next killing, the next outrage. So it is vital now that we eliminate them and if it takes a generation to do so, well so be it. The world will be better. And all the rest is white noise and fear. We would all just like to read our paper, drink our Lattes, visit our children and friends, have dates, play tennis, go fishing, etc. But it just won't be that way for a while. And carping and referring to the President is such a derisive way, "The great W", wont really strengthen us for what may come. I will try to remember to ping you and not hurt your feelings in the future. But my dear young man, you need to grow up and not be so scared of the future. We will all face it together, some at more risk than us.
