So why let Osama get away in favor of going after some wingnut with more bark than bite who just happened to have some vendetta against his father, without making some Orwellian Eurasia/Eastasia middle-of-the-speech jump? Granted, it was good for the Iraqi people that Saddam is gone, but what benefit does it have generations of Americans yet to be born that will be paying for all this? Zero. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBdJpdUzgNqloQMwcRAlCBAKDL/8UjCCNpO/GNiK2u3cDIfUPtcwCgwbIB EGSZy5P1P10I8Djd1WIP97g= =x3Td -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
