TIA,

my issue with you never was how wrong many of the war supporters (in general and here) have been in their predictions about the war. My one and only point was that people from the other camp have erred too (in general and in posts in Mudcat here). Nothing else.

Bobert,

you being wrong in predicting dates wouldn't elicit a repeated comment from me. I would mostly likely be wrong too in predicting a date for anything. What did make me laugh and comment later as you predicting different dates for the same event and your (like a true politician) way of accompanying your change of prediction with the words 'stick to'.

Step Two calls for an armored and infantry assault on the Iraqi army which has allready told the world that it will retreat into the major population centers. Now we're going to see a street fight, building to building, Iraqi bi Iraqi. (Bobert predicting the course of the war)

Now show us how Dixon would treat that: Point to Falluja and don't mention that the prediction once was made for the Iraqi army.
