I would really like to see proof that people have been sitting around measuring water evaporation from open pans over the past 30 years. The mind boggles. The Fed. Gov't would have had to have been behind this one, no matter where. Then they didn't notice it until now!

Hairstyles bother me. I am influenced and offended, though I haven't got it all worked out yet. What-the-hell, we need to all just be legislated bald. Wait, isn't Carville bald?

The French haven't won a war since the French Revolution, have they? Even here they also lost.
They could just dissolve the State totally and get right to the first truely Marxist Communist state of nature ever. But no, they couldn't even do that right, so busy are they hating us.

I'm glad that they can now decide this after the fact. Very impressive. Maybe Lewis and Clark would have never had to have gone if this Clarke had been alive at that point.

Along that line, Clarke characterized what he alleged was toning or slanting to praise the Bush Adm. [when he gave his "background" briefing] not in terms of "morality" [lying] but rather as "politics", for which he received some applause from the peanut gallery.
Apparently he has no idea that there is something called reality, and that this is what he was supposed to be dealing with in his job as chief counterterrorist. He seems to be a true liberal, concerned only with himself.

On Meet The Press, Clarke claimed terrorists were being turned out in "conveyor belt" fashion by the "thousands" prior to 9/11, apparently only in Afganistan. He also claimed that the Muslims were really p.o.'d by our invasion of Iraq, thus increasing terrorist production, which he seems to think is now occurring outside of Afganistan as a result, leading to the "creating terrorists" charge.
Clarke appears to be arguing that the Muslims would not have been p.o.'d if we had stuck only to Afganistan, thus not increasing or causing terrorist production outside of Afganistan. This assumption seems to me arbitrary at best, delusional otherwise. [Or is there some other factor here I'm missing?]

According to Clarke's logic, this post card proves that Bush warrants everything Clarke says about him subsequently. It's no wonder that Clarke carried little weight while at his job, a fact which we can all understand by his performance before us.
