Truman was no average guy. He was extraordinarily intelligent and
capable. And despite the fact that his formal education did not offer
him the advantages Bush had, he could plainly and well, without
butchering standard English.


I certainly agree that Truman was very intelligent and capable. My "average
guy" comment referred to his reputation as a no nonsense, plain speaking,
common sense type of person. GWB comes across a lot more like him than most
of the other current crop of professional politicians (although I kinda like
Bob Kerrey's style).



Bush the other night said he was leaving to the UN the choice of picking
who was supposed to be running Iraq on 30 June.


It will never happen. Collectively, the UN couldn't get together to decide
on a lunch menu.

How is your sockpuppet pal Creaky these days? And Harry Hope, how is he

Yup, I'm thinking this War on Terrorism will surpass America's longest
war, the War on Drugs, and with about the same success.

I disagree. Syria was stupid enough to send military aid and terrorists
to Iraq. They were also dumb enough to skirt the oil embargo, hide
Saddam's money, and give sanctuary to many of the Baath Party officials
from Saddam's regime (possible even Saddam and his sons initially). Of
course, seeing how serious we were about making them the next target,
they stopped supplying the military hardware, and threw out the
officials. Perhaps they accepted the WMD, but later figured that
either: a) turning them over would still not prevent a U.S. attack, or
b) they could hide them effectively enough, and we couldn't find them
unless we actually invaded Syria. I believe "b".


Puhleese, judging from the amount of illegal aliens we have, we haven't
done a very good job of policing our borders. Why are you holding Syria
to a higher standard? A third world country unable to police hundreds of
miles of desert wasteland, perhaps Bush should instruct Syria on
establishing a Department of Homeland Security. Syria did try to seal
it's border:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/syria/stor...940947,00.html

The bugs from the bioweapons could be replicated easily and kept alive
indefinitely...and the technology would never "turn to goo".


LOL, now you are sounding like the Bush administration. So now, it is not
WMD, it is WMD related programs.


Even David Kay speculated that Iraq shipped to Syria small quantities of
WMD and the technology to produce them .


Speculated? Reminds me of an old Bush quote, "There's an old saying in
Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, it's probably in Tennessee - that says,
fool me once, shame on ... shame on you. It fool me. We can't get fooled
again." Just how many countries are you willing to invade over the same
WMD, *without* ever having seen *any* of said WMD. The WMD is in Iraq.
Whoops, no, it is in Syria. Whoops, no, it is in Iran. Whoops, no, it's
in ... Try selling this somewhere else, I'm not buying.

I'm sorry, but I simply don't get that impression of Bush. To me, he
seems inarticulate and simple-minded, without an abstract idea in his
head. Interestingly, I always liked Bob Kerrey, too.

Well, Bush did say he was leaving the choice of Czar of Iraq to a
representative of the UN. However long we are involved there as we are,
it will be known as Bush's Quagmire.

Why do you think anyone in this group really cares what you think? Anyone
who makes up a story about a Lobster Boat, and then makes up an imaginary
"buddy" to talk about it, obviously is not of sound mind.
