It seems that if every nation on earth had the same intelligence that we had, the President went out on a considerable limb by ignoring their reports and listening to the neocrazies. I appreciate your efforts supporting the RNC and President Bush. It is so hard to protect a candidate from his own statements. Once made, the incorrect statement has to be corrected or ignored.

It is not corrected by ignoring the facts or trying to shift the blame to a third party. The Defense Policy Board at the Freedom Foundation sent a letter to Clinton in 1998 urging the overthrow of Sadaam Hussein. Most of these same signatories became key figures in the Bush Administration.

This is probably the reason Bush stated that there was a plan for regime change in the Clinton administration when answering questions in Monterrey. A copy of the letter is on the website of Freedom Foundation. This is not a liberal Foundation. Another site that I would like to recommend that has a critical essay on our military missteps on the war on terror can be found at the American War College site.

It is not only related to the military, but discusses the effects of the economics of being able to continue our overseas defense as well as improve our homeland defense measures. The gist of the article is that we have to choose our priorities and adjust to fourth generation warfare while still preserving an economy that can sustain our military obligations.

Take a look at 144, dimbulb. It was passed by Congress in 1998.

And as for this:

I appreciate your efforts supporting the RNC and President Bush.

They are not efforts; the truth doesn't need "efforts," as you say.

It is so hard to protect a candidate from his own statements.

What's even harder is to protect a candidate from outright lies, especially when they come under the guise of somebody being on our side.

Once made, the incorrect statement has to be corrected or ignored.

Well, since he never said it, it doesn't have to be corrected OR ignored does it.

You fell for the AP bulls**t, sucker.

And I certainly don't need appreciation from somebody actively working to misconstrue and distort the policies of this administration -- especially when you're trying to hand this country over to the liberals. The DNC, however, thanks you.

Better watch Brit Hume's show tonight; it seems that that article you're using to bolster your opinion was written by ONE MAN -- a Democrat who worked for Senators Benson and Nunn -- and it is NOT the opinion of the United States Army OR the American War College.

So far, you and Howard Dean are the only ones who agree with it.
