Well, heck, I dunno. But I did study classical logic in college, and learned that ad hominem attacks eminate from those who have no intelligent logic to support their attacks.
You attack, but offer nothing to support your arguments other than personal abuse. You did not address my question about your standard on use of force, because for you, either (a) use of force in defense of national prerequisites is never justified, or (b) use of force by a Republican President is never justified.
By the way, as one who is still a Reservist, and who has a teenage son who is probably on his way to Annapolis, who lives within a stone's throw from Camp Pendleton, who counts dozen's of active duty Marines (and Marine families, and their kids I coach) as close friends, I feel I have a personal stake in this decision. What is yours??
Zinni is a political General, carrying water for his patrons. His solution: "Adopt the Bill Clinton foreign policy, and all will be well." I disagree. NBC warfare and/or terrorism has been my constant concern since I first joined the Navy in 1980. The threat is real, and no, Iraq is not the only threat. WMD's will be used on US soil if the U.S. adopts the defense policies of the Democrat-left. Pre-emptive warfare should not be the first option of a U.S. President, but to say that Bush acting rashly on Iraq in view of the past 10-15 years history is disingenious. You have another agenda, as does the Democrat party. National defense is their furthest concern. November elections are all that matter.
FReegards, and "TOS" to you. I may or may not be an "idiot", but you are as worthless as your logic.
