I think it is not possible, politically, now...

All Bush wanted for people to do after 9/11 was to - go shopping -...

That was the level of sacrifice that was asked of the American people...to go shopping and to wait for the tax-cut check to arrive...

Officers? God, I hope not.

Would you want to follow orders from them?

3. They've been playing the public along all the time. They've been
undercutting any attempt to let Saddam have any friends. They've been working on getting out of the treaty for universal trials for war crimes. They learned a lot from Vietnam. No draft. People get upset with drafts. No information. Can't get tried on war crimes if no one can get at the information. Everything has gone off as they planned it years before * was put into the White HOuse.
