Hmm...firing on navy ships and *missing* their target
Let's see.
Would that be a good enough reason to "get George off the hook" and let him slither back to Washington?
Umm yeah. Probably.
It's what is expected of him.
And to think, he had decided to meet with Cindy next week....
Sound like a good spin?
Sounds like an awful lot of bullshit to me. Guess that drumbeat to war with Iran is gonna get louder.
:puke:

1. Katyushas are incredibly innacurate the longer
the range the worst they are... so it is not surprsing they missed. What is surprising is they managed to get that close

is just stupid... they are on their time line, we are on ours... they fight they war, and they managed to get within range inside the wire (in this case the effective range of a katyusha) but nobody called them and told them, hey boys we need some help here.

Now has bush left the Western WH? Any REAL president would, for this may be a harbinger of more attacks... but we are talking Bush here.
