So let me get this straight...

Intelligence that is three years old is bad if we didn't tell people sooner. Intelligence that we DID tell people about sooner is bad because it panics people. They don't give us enough intelligence and that they do give out is too specific and makes people panic. They shouldn't have killed any terrorists because that will make the undead ones angry and we should just let them be because then they'll ignore us. It's Israel's fault that they don't give more to the Palestinians and the Palestinians would stop blowing themselves up to kill Israelis if we gave them more. The Arabs all will hate us if we kill them and they'll hate us more if they see that we abandon them.

Egyptians hate us and we give them $2 billion a year.

The gallon of sarin that they found in a roadside bomb is not proof that there were WMD in Iraq. No other countries would have helped Saddam hide them and the whole idea that he had them was all a harmless practical joke, for which Saddam was glad to lose power and have thousands of his countrymen killed. All of those people in Jordan during the First Gulf War who chanted "Use the chemicals, Saddam" were just kidding, as were all of the Palestinians who danced on 9/11, and all of the people burning flags everywhere else. The people in America who held up signs saying "we Support Our Troops When They Shoot Their Officers" were just kidding, too.

Crazed Islamists wanting to blow up shopping malls isn't the problem, but some meatball politician who can't pronounce "nuclear" is the real enemy, and he just ginned up all of this other stuff to make money for his oil buddies, which is interesting because he didn't make a dime when he was an oilman himself. It makes more sense to search my one-year-old son at the airport than every single person who can pronounce Allah Akbar.

The meatball politician is a wire-puller extraordinaire but too dumb to tie his own shoes. He won't listen to anybody but is enmeshed in a worldwide conspiracy, and his opponent apparently thinks that the reason we don't have allies in France and Germany is we didn't have the ability to ask them in German and French.

Just checking.

Well, I'm not sure how I want to respond to this. Politics is a very sensitive subject. I will say there are some things I agree with, and some I don't. I do see your point of view pretty clearly though.

This last post was by me, by the way.
