L.H. How insensitive of you! First you insult rich folks (she could never be elected without them) and then you insult women! The latter is the most serious of course. You're a brave man Little Hawk.

CarolC: the world is not going to administer the war against terriorism. Terriorism didn't JUST happen, as you know. It has been a part of the world for a long time. When it hit the United States (it had before but it wasn't in the United States so everybody wrung their hands but did nothing because it was not on U.S. soil) it became real to Americans and it was the "last straw."

Who has the money to defeat the terrorists? Who has the manpower, technology, and equipment to do it? Who can organize the consortium that will make it possible? (Never mind why) Who has the will? If you answer any country other than the U. S., then ...I guess we will have something else to talk about.
