Oh, and by the way, Perry, I was in the military and in a war. How about you?

>Thinking like mine *saves* this country. Critical thinking. Objective, analytical thinking. I'm not the sheep here, Perry. I respect all viewpoints but don't try to tell me what is fact and what is hyperbole.

>>The link you responded to is a Frontline documentary that started last nite and continues tonite. I watched/read much on the runup to the war. But there were some new things I hadn't heard about before that were brought up last night.

>>First, I found it shocking that rumsfeld let his personal feelings get in the way of working with the CIA in the initial days of war in Afghanistan. I'm not sure if it was because of his relationship with cheney. But that no one stepped up to coordinate efforts showed how dysfunctional those in charge of our govt back then, were.

>>The story also showed up fixated the neocons were to carry out their manifesto they had written some yrs before that called for overthrowing Saddam. There were some in the administration who were determined at all costs to show some relationship between Saddam and Al Queda.
>>
>>Hopefully there will be a good outcome to all this. But thinking like yours has put this country in a very precarious position.

>>>Bill Moyers is an avowed anti-Bush zealot so I don't place any worth in this.

>>>I don't particularly like propaganda masquerading as news regardless of the bent.
