>You will see the evidence after Sadham is gone.. I am very confident in that..

Tell ya what Rhino. If, after the war, Bush does not produce any substantial further evidence linking Saddam to Bin Laden, you contribute $100 to Veterans for Peace. If he does produce further evidence I'll contribute $100 to the charity of your choice. Deal? If you're confident, it's a slam dunk.

It's open & shut, there's evidence, it also makes it clear that this wasn't just about WMD and everyone knew that before they forgot. Heck Rhino can spell Saddam now too, so he wins just because of the derivative of his stock price.

Just for context, this exchange took place when US troops were on the outskirts of Baghdad, 4 days before it fell.

Yup, you're still confused.

>Will you agree to allow this poll to determine the bet?

I don't think a poll should have any bearing on whether someone keeps their word or not. Rhino can pay or he can decide not to; his decision.



Just as you should pay but could decide not to:

Or you can pay? Your decision. WMD's were found. WMD's are still there. Do I need to elaborate? :)

The facts have already decided. I find it fascinating that you have taken such an interest in something between billvon and I.. Fascinating...

What prompted this thread from you?

The bet is about links to terror, not WMD, it's a slam dunk. As I said, it's all the more interesting because it brings into focus the modern revisionism that everything was about WMD. If it was about WMD why was a bet made about links to terrorism? Because WMD was not the only issue, and the record shows this.

Well, I was reading this thread http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1674513;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread

...which referenced this thread http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=409555#409555

...read down a few posts and thre it was for all to read (hardly a private wager now was it?).

So, if you choose not to let the poll decide, fine but I don't see the need to try and change the subject and go on the attack. It makes you seem a bit ...cheesy, don't you think?

The question remains, will you allow this poll to settle what seems to be a valid wager offered and accepted publicly ...or just blow hot air?

I know I wouldn't want to be known as someone who welches on a bet ...but that's just me. ;)


ATFQ!

I believe you specified the criteria to be met with this:

But if you want support before you go in, you'll need to come up with something better.
Otherwise, many in the world, myself included, will view this action as illegal.

You may be right... After all is said and done hopefully amazing evidence is produced. Hopefully enough that when the U.S. and Britain say something needs to be done, no one questions our intelligence..

Why the heck should he, that's a crazy idea. The wager wasn't about opinion of self selecting voters in a biased poll, it was about the facts.

Did you check the title of this thread? Oh, wait YOU wrote the title, with the intent of loading the question.

I'm sure you wouldn't but it's clear you want Rhino to be seen as welching on a bet, in spite of the facts.

My! You know, I had thought you a cold, unfeeling individual, but you're really quite ...emotional, aren't you? (OK, folks, what movie?)

I believe you specified the criteria to be met with this:



Since you edited;

No he didn't, you just picked one of his posts to unfairly characterize the wager again trying to swing the results, that was actually in relation to WMD. Bill specified some criteria, it's in your first post, but the underlying issue is evidence of Saddam's links to terror, and since you're ignoring that, here it is again:

http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1662459;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;guest=13618117

Now you can keep whitewashing this and unfairly calling Rhino a welcher but to use your own words; "It makes you seem a bit ...cheesy, don't you think?"

You should know by now it will never be enough of a link to terror for Bill to pay his debt. The only way it might be enough is if ole Saddam and Bin Laden were photographed lighting the fuse to a bomb together. I say BillVon lost and Rhino wins.

The question remains



Oh.. I'm sorry? Are you my keeper or something? I need to agree to little ole you's demands?

Get a life.




Lighten up, Francis. It was just a question as to whether or not the two of you would accept this poll to settle your wager. I may be going out on a limb here, but I'm gonna tentatively put you down for a "No" on this one. B|

Why would you let a poll settle a wager? If the conditions were met, they were met.
