Too many here have tunnel vision. China is using enormous amounts of natural resources that lead to shortages and huge cost increases here.

Definitely something that needs close inspection.

Can't allocate two hours to the President. You never know when there will be a car chase somewhere.

The last government was tossed because they were viewed as corrupt. I guess Bush believes that if they don't work, they will be voted out

Absolute nonsense and that the President believes it is scary.

I can prove it is nonsense and I don't need the President's intelligence assets....only a daily newspaper.

Since the election, Fatah, the losing party, have stepped up terrorist operations. They know better then the President that the way back to power is not by promising good things for the "Palestinians" but by promising and delivering dead Israelis.

There was a brief moment during the first Administration when I believed this President would stop the Mideast charade of Arabs wanting peace with Israel and formulate policies based on reality. It was also when I believed he might be a great President. I was fooled and wrong.

Argh! WTH is he doing?

FYI...the statement the MSM has been making:

On July 18, 2003, the administration, facing criticism for the intelligence used to justify the war, declassified an eight-page part of the NIE dubbed "key judgments" and conducted a lengthy background briefing with reporters to discuss it.

“Key judgments" is the operative word here. They were declassified by Tenet in October of 2002, six days after the NIE was complete per the following information:
On October 7, 2002 DCI Tenet sent a letter to the Senate Intelligence Committee declassifying portions of its new National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq.

Sen. Carl Levin News Release

Another article:

A 25-page version of the National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction was released in October 2002. It made clear-cut statements about Iraq's nuclear, biological and chemical weapons capabilities in two pages of "Key Judgments."

Source

A copy of the Key Judgments document can be found here. Warning: .pdf file.

As usual, the MSM gets it wrong. More info I just found:

The American people needed to know these reservations, and I requested that an unclassified, public version of the NIE be prepared. On Oct. 4, Tenet presented a 25-page document titled "Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction Programs."
- Statement of Sen. Bob Graham (D-FL).

The Dems asked for the release and Tenet signed off on it.

Did I mention "Waaaaaaaagggghhhh????"

Dude, find another topic to whine about at least occasionally, or please go back to your other forum. Your one-hit wonder act is bo-o-o-o-o-oring!

Do you support America joining the North American Union of states with Mexico and Canada, ala the European Union? Just a yes or no would suffice.

If GW thinks that, he's waaaay out of touch.

The Prez is in position to know what is what. There are some big problems and dangers and it would take a rare genius to figure out how to get past all of it. If there is such a genius anywhere on earth, he ought to speak up.

Sadly, you are probably right but a "realistic" policy in the region is not a policy at all, just a series of bombing runs.
