My secret fantasy about Clark or Biden or Warner or hell, even Hillary.
Edited on Sun Aug-14-05 07:52 AM by wyldwolf
In 1979, and accounts may differ, Ross Perot hired a group of mercenaries to sneak into Iran and free several of his employees from an Iranian prison.

Some deny it happened. But that isn't really my point.

My secret fantasy about Clark or Biden or Warner or hell, even Hillary and any Democrat running in '08 is this:

Prospective candidate hires a mercenary team, tracks, finds, and captures bin Laden.

Yeah - I know the logistics of it would be near impossible.

But wouldn't it be... neat?

1. Brilliant!
and it's very do-able. I think the group would find that those that are protecting OBL are well paid by the US government. I would love to know what kind of deal Bushco cut with OBL to make that video right before the election last year.

3. Good idea
But it would probably be impossible to accomplish.

4. my fantasies
run more to universal health care and a government that gives a shit about its school kids. That'd be neat.

6. I'm open to hearing more from Clark.
He's not my favorite for 2008, but I like a lot that I've seen and heard.

7. Hell, after rappelling down a mountainside to attempt a rescue of
a friend in a car crash in Kosovo, Clark, at just five years older than when that incident occurred, probably wouldn't have to HIRE someone to do it - he could probably do it himself!

:7

8. I'm even doubting that Bin Laden actually exists anymore.
His health was failing in 2001. Here it is, four years later, and he's still releasing video tapes on occasion from his cavern lairs, yet he looks suspiciously different with each passing tape.

I'm not saying he's dead, but I wouldn't put it past Bushco to keep their Boogeyman alive, bringing him out to drum up fear whenever needed. The mistake they learned with communism is that when your enemy actually succumbs, then you're left with no more enemy.
