However, the opening lines of the publication indicate that it is the
opinion of the author and not the official view of the SSI or War College.

The key words you conveniently omitted were "not necessarily". To
substitute the single word "not" is a blatant dishonesty. Frankly, even
attempting to discount the validity of the report with that tactic is
disingenuous in that the report is published by the SSI and posted on their
website.

Very well, please replace the words "not necessarily" for "not." I did
not intend to attempt to discredit the article, merely to point out that in
all campaigns there is usually lack of consensus on how to best wage them.
FWIW, Joe, I tend to agree with the position of the article. But I am also
glad that Hussein is no longer paying suicide bombers families and trying to
figure out how to target Tel Aviv.

Thank you, Ed, for your insightful interrogatory and that pithy and
timely bon mot. You might be interested to know that the entirety of
the cut-and-paste portion of your message was a non sequitur, not
at all surprising since you obviously did not read the report to

Stevee didn't say ANYTHING ! His entire post was nothing but vapid

"fundamentalists" gathering in the "target zones". That lying piece
of **** didn't read the report either, but in a subsequent post he
admitted to tending to agree with its position because he was trying
to appear reasonable while backpedaling at the speed of sound.

No wonder the media keeps saying that Howard is the frontrunner -it's
wishful thinking.


Kerry supporter: Why does Kerry terrify you?

Bush supporter: Because he might win.

Kerry supporter: Thanks for your honesty.

Bush supporter: No problem. Anyone who is endorsed by the drunken,
murdering Senator from Kerry's homestate, can't be good for the
country.

Kerry supporter: And what makes you think you have the right to
determine what is good for the country?

Bush supporter: no response.

Another Bush supporter came to the rescue and offered this response:

"I sir, am a member in good standing of this much beloved country's
citizenry. 'Tis better that we the people make the decisions than fat
old farts like Senator Kennedy."

This hostile, anti-Kennedy rhetoric is not an isolated incident, and
it is safe to conclude that the fanatics who fear the candidacy of
John Kerry are responsible for creating the perception that Dean's
political candidacy is unstoppable.

On here at least, Mr.Fortenberry has never made any pretensions to being
other than what he is, basically a contentious but truthful arsehole ( to
which exalted rank I also aspire). It is a shame that the same can not be
said for many others, doubtless officers and gentlemen all. Patriots?
Another name for chauvinism of the worst kind, or extremely unreliable
missiles.

By the way, I could not give a **** what you think of me either, but it
would be nice if you thought at all.

This place is going from bad to worse recently. Hardly a civil post among
the whole load of ****, and even less about fishing. Cabin fever may well
be rife, but frontal lobotomy can not be so common?

Rank? There are no ranks here, although quite a lot is rank. In my day,
officers were at least expected to be civil ( There´s irony for you). Even a
lowly sergeant learned to mind his manners very quickly indeed, even when
merely dealing with the ranks.

What ****ing planet do you guys live on anyway? If you can´t post something
sensible or germane, then don´t blame Fortenberry, blame your own ****ing
