It was a leak! It was not meant for release.

I know, I know. I began my argument from the POV that someone thought this was purposely leaked and was good strategy.

We did not threaten them, we prepared a defense plan.

I have no problem with a defense plan or contingency plan. I see no reason to name names and now that this has been released...I think I've put forth that argument five or six times already.

Yes, they [Libya} have, but they have also constructed hardened underground sites that a nuke might be needed to penetrate. Do you trust Kadafi(sp?)?

Might be needed, whatever. Cynic that I am, I trust very few people who hold power. However, Kaddafi has *seemed* sincere lately, why punish a "good deed"?

So? What are they going to do? Attack? If they do, they would have anyway.

I don't know how you can say this is necessarily so.

Whoever leaked it should be tried and hung in public for TREASON.

LOL!!! You don't honestly think anyone will be held accountable for this do you????

I look at it as just keeping him on his toes and reminding him that Pres. Bush is in the Reagan mold, not clntoon.

Not necessarily, but I would think high probability.

Cynicism? Let's not get into a pissing contest, we will have to get out the waders and trout season has not even opened yet!;-) Accountability? Hey I can dream, can't I?

P.S.-
I'm listening to Batchelor and Alexander on WABC 770 AM (they stream) and their first guest was Frank Gaffney from the Center For Security Policy who said the leak sounded like it came from a guy named Bill Larkin. I did not catch who he was (unlike that running joke around here I really was in the shower), but I'm going to try to find out who he is. Gaffney said he was a well known leaker from the past in these kind of matters.
