Best LTTE about the Usama bin Laden tape - Globe and Mail (CDN). |

'Clearly Osama bin Laden wants Americans to think that he thinks that they will think he only wants them to think he is trying to get Bush elected so they will think that by voting for Bush they will not have been taken in at all, but in reality, if they think that, they will have been'. Alan Rutkowski, Edmonton.

2. 'The Princess Bride' Argument... |
|
which was posted here at DU first a couple days ago! :
"Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me."

Going in against a Sicilian when death is on the line is a classic blunder, only slightly less well known than never getting involved in a land war in Asia...

7. Well, it is a letter. The actual G+M staff had nothing to do with it. |

That's probably why it's legible.
