"I wonder if it will be a surprise attack..."LOL. I thought the same thing. My hope of hopes is that these "leaks" are intentional and to keep the evildoers guessing. If not, there needs to be some stings and jail time....

The traitor William Cohen was just lining up with all the new traitors in offering "expert" and outdated opinion that there is no link between Iraq and Al Queda, when a CNN news alert reported that Whitehouse is considering bombing Chem/Bio plant in Iraq known to intel to be run by Al Queda. What a smack in the face! What a wonderful moment for those who used to admire Cohen and are now dumbfounded by his clintonistic views. Yahoo!!!!!!!

Well, a suitable ICBM should be surprising enough.

Or a salvo of presidential-palace-seeking cruise missiles.

If nothing else it squelches a weekend full of baloney about Iraq. Here is my theory. Iraq is now in cahootes with Al Queda, big time. W is whipping the bushes around the world to drive the terrorists in the the 3 countries of axis of evil when they have no place else safe, then we go in, cuz they are there. Iraq is still fighting the mother of all battles and that is why we were attacked by al queda for all those years.

Or a salvo of presidential-palace-seeking cruise missiles. Thing about cruises is you can know they're coming, and there's no nuclear-tipped ones left - not tomahawks at lest, I believe. A ballistic missile - perhaps fired from a sub - would likely not be noticed before the place was just a mushroom cloud. Oh, some radar people might have five minutes to unload in their pants.

What happened to the link on CNN's website? I don't see it. I got a CNN breaking news e-mail alert too. The least they could do is send out another one and say "OOOPPSS"
