excited before
".. for about 3 seconds before..."
You realized that Bush's secret service entourage has more fire power than our entire armed forces put together. We'd have a tough time making an arrest stick.
I was at a concert last night and the singers managed to fit in about 5 "Bush" remarks. A cheap way to get an applause around here.
I'm not sure is the red states care what the rest of the world thinks but I'm sure they would be surprised and the degree of animosity that has grown over the last couple of years here.
I've always been somewhat critical (in a friendly way) of the US. The lastest game of a thieviing senator trying to steal 3 billion is close enough to the last straw. I'm prepared to take the economic consequences of shutting off the energy we supply to the US until the bullying stops.

Mmmmmm now there's a thought
though a fair bit of it is overseas at the moment.
Mmmmm now there is a thought. If we attack before Zephyr is home maybe the odds wouldn't be so bad after all.
Nah, the Washington police probably outnumber us.

Problems
There I go not thinking ahead again. Seems to me we could consider withdrawing under our terms. We get Wash, Or, Idaho and other good skiing -- you guys get Quebec.
Oh, and Alaska, that panhandle arrangment was stupid!

And what we want one of those for?
An A-bomb, we could have built our own decades ago. Why would we?
Then we'd have WMD and be even more subject to invasion by the only country we have to fear in today's world.

US Invasion
I realized the potential risk that the US represents during the 1973 oil crisis. There was an interview with a senator (Florida I think) and he talked about the "North American" oil reserves.
It was clear during the interview that it was a case of what is yours is yours and what is ours is yours too. Now I think that electrical supplies and water could well get included in that.
If we decided that what is our is ours I could see some sabers getting rattled.
And we can easily produce weapons grade uranium if we thought it was a good idea.

WMD?
But we correctly went in to free the people from a torturing dictator, and what do ya know, WE FOUND WMD!
Oh!! I thought that there was a rather study review of this conducted for the senate (or somesuch) that came to the opposite conclusion.
What is your source for this information?

A single, old gas shell
A sairin nerve gas shell, which by the way, worked and got several of our soldiers sick
No one argues that Saddman didn't once have WMD. Heck, the US sold them to him (or helped him get them). That some small bit was left over isn't a huge surprise. This is a joke!
A single gas shell is hardly "mass" destruction. And if it had worked the soldiers would have been dead. Sarin is nasty stuff.

Money to terrorists
And where did a lot of money for Al Queda come from? Why didn't you attack the Saudi's then?
