nacmacfeegle 0 #27 May 25, 2004 I didn't watch it, but I've read key excerpts from the speech. The whole thing seemed reasonable, but lacking detail, not surprisingly, it is after all a dynamic situation. Tactically Dubbya must ensure transfer of power as promised, the date has already slipped once, further slippage will give ammunition to his critics, both at home and abroad. The plan that was outlined seems presumptuous and optimistic, and to me shows nothing new of any substance. I reckon the next 6 weeks or so will prove critical to the success or failure of the liberation process. I really do wish the coalition every success in this difficult period, but can't help harbouring some misgivings.-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

kallend 2,174 #28 May 25, 2004 QuoteHmm....if the foreign policy situation is analagous, please point out the current day versions of the following with regards to Iraq: - COMINTERN - Ho Chi Minh - North Vietnam - USSR - China I'm having trouble finding them myself. You have trouble because you choose to look in the wrong place. The analogy is Nixon's "secret plan" to win a war, that after the election turned out to be no plan. Some of us are old enough to remember the voters having been fooled before.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
