Due to falling poll numbers...
 
Doesn't matter why as long as it gets done!
capture of Osama - a good thing, better thing would be the death of Osama
locating of WMD - Again why would this be a bad thing?
For what ever reasons, the world would be a better place, if this happened.

This is why it is so dangerous for us to have such a simple-minded fool
in the White House.


It's a good thing, then, that we don't. The only truly simple minded fool
that we routinely see 'round about here posts under the name of Harry
Krause.

In other words, the
terrorists have transcended the impact of any single terrorist leader,
or even single terrorist organization. We are not in an era like World
War II, where the capture or assassination or suicide of someone like
Mussolini or Hitler basically ends the involvement of a nation or a
group of combatants.



All the terrorists (that we are worried about) have one thing in common.
They are Islamic "fundies" who would wish to impose Islamic theocracy on
thier peoples and others. They are also willing to die for thier cause,
whatever it may be at the moment. We need to help them do that.

It will take a great bloodbath the likes of which has not been seen since
WW2 to rid the world of this evil. This problem is much bigger than Bush. We
are the "great Satan" that has let the evils of personal choice and the
freedom for all to go to hell if they so wish out of the bottle. The liberty
bell cannot be unrung. Only problem is we need a western educated, forward
thinking, secular minded, Islamic leader to rise up and spearhead the
bloodbath.

Or to turn your paragraph on it's end in a sick way. An Islamic Stalin or
Hitler type who is willing to "purge" that extemist viewpoint from our
planet. In a perfect world, it would be a movement we could support at
first, withdraw support from when it got too messy (to keep our hands
clean), and then kiss and make up with later after the fundie bodies are
burned and forgotten about.

Could we raise a few million man army and go over there and "purge" the
fundies - you bet. One way to guarantee we don't cause any human suffering
over there is to kill them all, then they won't suffer. But I'd rather it
come from "within" over there so our hands don't look as bloody.

Still got snow up there in Westford?


Patches of earth showing, even bare spots on the driveway.

Why the non-sequitur?

Life is a non-seq, John; think outside the box.

Our Christian fundies are not prone to grave acts of terrorism. Yes, we've
had a few abortion clinic bombing / shootings - but they don't go around
blowing up skyscrapers for Jesus.

Do I want to start WW3? - no. Do I feel that it's 90% inevitable?, yes.
Faced with said "inevitability" would I strike first and catastrophicly - I
don't have the stomach.

You want to start World War III? That's the sure way to do it. Besides,
I'm not sure "their" Islamic fundies are any worse than "our" Christian
fundies. Conservative fundies are the plague everywhere, especially if
there are lots of them.

Bush's actions since 9-11 have consolidated and brought
together terrorist movements all over the world whose one unifying
principle is hatred for the United States.


A travelling salesman happens upon a hole-in-wall motel while travelling
late at night on a remote road to nowhere. He asks for a room and the desk
manager replies they don't have any available since the only one left is not
suitable for *anyone* to sleep in.

"I'll take it!" replies the salesman.

"But you haven't heard why it's not fit to sleep in. There are thousands
of flies infesting the room and we haven't been able to get rid of them"
says the manager.

"Doesn't matter" responds the salesman " because I haven't slept in 30 hours
and I really need a place to sleep".

The next morning, the salesman comes to the desk to check out with a big
smile on his face and looking well-rested.

"You look well-rested. How the heck did you manage with all the flies last
night?" asked the manager.

"Just fine" says the salesman.

"But how?" says the manager

"I bunched 'em".

"You *bunched* 'em?"

"Yeah" says the salesman. "I took a **** in the corner and bunched 'em"

------------------------------------------------------
Bush is just ****ting in the corner (Iraq) and bunching the flies
(terrorists). Harry thinks Bush's actions are creating *new* terrorists.
In reality, Bush is just bringing the sleepers out of their slumber...sooner
rather than later.

Unfortunately I agree. But the alignments of various countries are far
from clear. We may have different reasons for coming to the same
conclusion. Do a Google search on "Hubbert's Peak" and read some of the
articles that pop up. Or not... it won't cheer you up any.

Me neither... and a 'catastrophic first strike' may not even buy
victory, it may not even buy a short term advantage. And it would be an
extremely poor legacy for future generations of Americans. My opinion is
that the best thing we can do is to maintain the US *economic* strength,
not fritter it away for short term luxuries. And we darn sure should not
be vigorously increasing the pool of future enemies while spending
ourselves into oblivion... remember the Reaganites glee at what the USSR
did to itself? Why are we following in their footsteps?

In the global poker game, the US still has some aces in the hole... but
BushCo is not playing very smart (unless you are a major oil or defense
industry contractor).
