It all depends on what "is" is. Deja vu, all over again. Johnson and
the Gulf of Tonkin, Nixon's "Secret Plan to End the War" and "I am not
a crook". Reagan and Iran Contra, Grenada, Bush and Oil Part One,
Clinton and his Johnson, Bush and Oil Part Two. Kerry and ?

As I said, I only read Safire after the fact - I really did think your entire
post was regarding his column, though it didn't make much sense.

I'm curious how this thread will play out (the real thread, not this NG
thread!) - If GWB was playing a game by avoiding the words "imminent threat,"
I'm not sure the public will buy it. If you took a poll today, you'd probably
find the 80% of the voters "think" he said it.

So, you did exactly what the Dems are saying Bush did - you made it sound
like
you meant one thing while maintaining deniability.

Come now, let's not play dog in the manger. If you actually read the Safire
article, your supposed misunderstanding of the original post was either
absurdly disingenuous or just plain dumb. In either event it's not worth my
playing silly games of sophistry with you.
