Amos: ever occur to you that I find your skepticism as puzzeling as you find my optimism?

I don't believe that any American president, Democrat or Republican, Green or Yellow, would start a war simply because they want to.

I don't believe Bush is as stupid, dumb, or as callous as you and others obviously do.

My belief that Bush, and key administration officials have proof that Iraq has WMDs, and that Saddam would not hesitate to use them, is on as solid ground as those who think otherwise. Neither of us KNOWS for sure.

Hasn't Troll asked time after time for proof to back up statements by you and others that Bush is merely starting a war because he wants a war? There has been no proof offered by your side either!

I am confident, however, that before there is an invasion of Iraq or any other country, the American people, and the world, will be told the reason for it.

Acceptance by doubters is quite another thing.
