Thank you for causing me to re-read the article. it appears to be a reprint from the guardian (A leftie UK rag), the article paraphrases what a Time story tells. Ty, this is not a Time article.

They told me you wouldn't get it, but I said, give him time, he'll work it out.

There are NO details, nada about the prominence of the "plan" or its detail.

True. You get what you pay for. Invest 15 seconds in your own Google search and you might even turn up the original Time article.

I have no doubt that in an overall "hand the keys" over someone said "there is a shit pile we let grow, you can take care of it," maybe the somebody even said "here is a plan." but to imply more takes more than reading comprehension. a health sense of fantasy would be required, even accepting the article's hyperbole.

You can always try reading about what actually happened, although I can understand why fantasizing works better with your political views.

Suggesting that OBL is Clinton's fault, as you do here, is really beneath you. Save that for the return of Fluffer, etc. Who was suggesting that we invade Afghanistan after the embassy bombings? That's right: nobody. But now you know that the Clintonistas proposed going in with Special Forces in late 2000, but that the Bushies sat on their ass until 9/11. Kinda makes you understand why they don't want Kean and Cleland et al. checking things out -- we only know about this because Sandy Berger got pissed that they were pointing the finger at him.

the second of your supporting "hits" uses Al Franken as its "supporting facts." Can i stop now?

It's a free country. Type a plausible search into Google yourself and you may find all sorts of interesting stuff.

Fuck. That means you'll be really mean when you reply.

Went with a Seghesio (sp?) zin instead.
