curse away, erik, i'm a big fan of profanity in all shapes and form and am an avid practitioner of the blue vernacular.
contacts and connections...which have yet to be disproven or proven...i have a feeling that the election year to come will be one of big ol' surprises.
but i do defer to your vast knowledge of george. and i admit that i am surprised that he'd made the case so forcefully. but those were all campaign speeches to the already true believers. oh hell, i can't argue this, he said it. ****. i believe that such "contacts" between members of al qaeda and members of hussein's government will eventually be proven. even if there's little chance of "connecting" him to 9/11.
i do have an idea though...with your almost encyclopedic knowledge of all things w, i really believe you could make a strong contribution to the gop cause, erik. have you ever considered coming over to the dark side?

Going over to the Dark Side has always been tempting. There's the chance that I would be making more money and paying less taxes. But just like Luke Skywalker I must resist. If I were to fall prey to the Dark Side I would probably join The Democratic Party...
I do however think it would be fun to get together for happy hour one day, have some cocktails, and make fun of people.
eh, it was worth a try.
i'm good with happy hour. and cocktails.
while we are having cocktails we could also discuss the fact that not only were bush and co. hyping the link between al qaeda and iraq, but as recently as 2002, according to this story in the ny times so was that dastardly wes clark.
"[i]n an [o]ctober 2002 news conference in which he endorsed a [n]ew [h]ampshire [d]emocrat for [c]ongress, [c]lark said, '[c]ertainly there's a connection between [i]raq and al-[q]aida.'"
