"When I quote Bush himself showing that he thinks there are better ways? You ignore it. You keep defending Bush in spite of the fact that all of the evidence runs against your position."
Nonsense! All of the evidence obliterates your bizarre claims that Bush "opposed" arming pilots. Evidence? Evidence is something tangible such as SIGNING TWO pro-gun arming-pilots bills! Evidence is FIRING Magaw, the bureaucrat who held up in red tape the implimentation of the first pro-gun-pilot law.
Nor did I "ignore" what you said about Bush. In fact, I showed you that Bush's view about being "open to better ways" did NOT support your wild-eyed claim that Bush was opposed to arming pilots. That's hardly "ignoring" what you said.
What's missing, however, is any evidence to contradict what I said at the very first (that you would at BEST only be able to show non-Bush sources claiming that Bush opposed arming pilots).
All of the evidence obliterates your bizarre claims that Bush "opposed" arming pilots. LOL....Of course. Virtually everyone connected with airline security in his cabinet opposes, he says there are better ways and the evidence is all for his support....
What's missing, however, is any evidence to contradict what I said at the very first (that you would at BEST only be able to show non-Bush sources claiming that Bush opposed arming pilots).
The fact that you wish to ignore his underlings opposition to the bill was not really representative of his views.
But this should lay it all to rest for anyone with any intellecutal honesty:
White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said President Bush is unlikely to support the idea. Bush plans to follow the advice of administration officials, Fleischer said, "and the recommendation of the experts is that this not proceed." Homeland Security Director Tom Ridge and Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta oppose arming pilots.
Aren't you embarrrassed yet? It's not missing. You are simply ignoring the evidence.
