Probably too late, but a point that should be made.......

Perhaps it'll be useful in making a last minute conversion or two.

You know that Bush commercial with the wolves? The one that says "if your enemies percieve weakness, they'll attack?

It's no big secret that our military is stretched pretty thin right now. The entire world knows it.


If North Korea or Iran decided to do some sabre-rattling right now, how well equipped are we to effectively deal with it?

Who is it that has a major part of our military force committed to a worthless cause right now? People can argue all they want about it being a good thing that Hussein is gone, but was it really wise to tie up our defenses to such a large degree in order to do the non-essential job of spreading "freedom and democracy"?

The "wolves" commercial missed the mark just a bit - it's not a matter of enemies percieving weakness; it's a matter of enemies percieving vulnerability. Strength and vulnerability are not mutually exclusive.

1. since there has NEVER been a documented attack on humans...

by wolves in N America, I think their ad is stupid for starters. And it does concern me that Dumbya has stretched our military and put all of us at greater risk in several ways. He MUST go.

2. "since there has NEVER been a document attack on humans..."

A. Thank you for sticking up for the truth and the wolfs
B. I don't know if the wolves (Repubs) have thought it through. But you got to wonder where all the talk of starting a draft came from. Like nobodys going to join up if there a war in Korea. Like maybe somebody is doing the ground work.
