You're doing a stunning job not answering questions.

As I said, you obviously haven't read a single book about Iraq. You obviously haven't seen the many articles written that detail the links between Iraq and AQ. You obviously didn't listen to the administration demonstrate those links. You obviously haven't heard that many members of Congress (Democrats included) want to reopen investigations into the first WTC attack.

It has become patently obvious that you prefer to give the terrorists free reign in any country they chose to organize to plan their next attack on this country. You have made yourself very clear and your positions are untenable. They would also be laughable if they weren't so dangerous.

There are two kinds of fools -- the fool who asks silly questions and the fool who expects answers to them.

Another day, another attack and another life lost. Wonder if Rummy will be playing a little golf at the country club this week-end.

How many terrorists have been either killed or captured?

You do realize that we are in a WAR, don't you? Your inane comment can be said about any MAYOR of any city in the United States. i.e. "As the Mayor plays GOLF, another citizen is killed needlessly on the streets of his city." Both comments are equally ridiculous.

You trying to revive the old Viet body count era? Probably not an area the neoconazis and pod people want to get into.

Actually, I'm glad that Rummy and his buddies will be safe and sound at the country club. I will sleep easier knowing that he isn't worried and all is well.

No, I just want to see if you know what you're talking about.

Here's one about that Big Picture you refer to, or is it?

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/971828/posts

Maybe this is another Big Picture, different from the Big Picture you're looking at. As far as the SecDef, I'm not that impressed. They are fool's if they think this will be the end. To somehow equate the presence of some in Iraq with Iraq remaining the battlefield is pure foolishness, the whole time knowing the feds are watching suspected sleepers in 40 different States, and these are just the ones they know about. Do you fall into this camp? Partner. Blackbird.

Nobody - I say again NOBODY!!!!!! - thinks the war on terrorism will end in Iraq. Get a grip on reality.

Your SecDef seems to think that this is "THE" battlefield (a point echoed by the WH, BTW), you turn around and echo this concept and I'm the one who needs to "Get a grip on reality"? You guy's are under the impression that all the terrorist in the world are converging on Iraq, not my concept, yours! What a bunch of loser's! My grasp of reality is firm, Partner! Later! Blackbird.

Yep, that is the predominant view. And I agree with that view.

And it has next to nothing to do with my previous statement. NOBODY thinks the war on terror will end in Iraq!

You're gripping something, but it doesn't resemble reality.

And yet you think highly enough of them to carry a major DoD program name as your screen name.

I wonder if he wondered how many blowjobs Clinton was getting while our national security was neglected and ignored?
