I'm not sure what your point is, but uh, no.

If you're implication is that I think Tillman is too stupid or whatever to write this you're wrong. My point was that it reads like a speechy McCopywriter kind of piece. It reads like something intended to get folks all hot and bothered so that they reach for their check books.

Russo;

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ignore you, I just missed that post.

If I can figure out a short way to answer your question, I will, but that sounds like a booklength topic or a doctoral thesis.

Every party you mentioned was a player, and it's a covoluted mess. I don't think we'd be where we are without all of them pulling in the same direction, which is curious in and of itself.

I think W would have tried for a war in Iraq without Bin Laden. I think there's sufficient evidence to make that argument. But I don't think he'd have got it.
