2. I'm sure we already had planes in the area. This is NO example of being able to fight
another front!

3. Hey, they haven't even done the obligatory premature "mission accomplished" yet.
Isn't he in a tad too much of a hurry?

7. Everything that has happened since the Miami port non-incident
yesterday and everything that will happen until 9:00 PM ET on Wednesday is solely designed and disseminated to have an impact on public opinion of Bush's escalation of the war in Iraq. I expect to hear more between now and then. It's just more fear-mongering on the part of this administration and anyone who buys into this boy who cries wolf is an absolute idiot.

9. At Least
We're going after AL QAEDA instead of chasing after fake WMD's.

15. Are they there?
Or is it simply that every rebellion or anti-government organization gets the free label al qaida so George has a nice big boogeyman to scare the children with?

20. Excuse me for belaboring the obvious, but where is Osama bin Laden?
It's very unlikely that he's in Somalia. So why are we supposed to be impressed by this . . . action?
