Don't be silly, you win absolutely nothing that way. We're going about it exactly right. If you bothered to read the Iranian thread you'd know the affect Iraq is having on that country. I also read today that some of the terrorist organizations are bouncing checks (including the checks they issued to turn out those massive "arab street" protests.

Iraq is pretty much like building a building. A couple of months go by and you don't really see much happening and then suddenly, the walls go up, the roof goes on, the building is fleshed out and people think these things happened overnight. They didn't.

There is a LOT going on in this war on terrorism that people don't see unless they look hard, but there is a firm foundation being layed that will support the next phase very well.

"Terrorism may use religion as a disguise, but terrorism violates every religion and every standard of decency and morality."

Sorry, I don't think the President get's it yet. Terrorism doesn't violate every religion. Those who take Islam seriously wouldn't and don't agree with the above quote Mr. President.

That's a pretty good analogy, and you are right; I should be more patient.

Do tell. Some of the banks these folks use aren't known for their "kinder, gentler" overdraft policies.
