"We see the horseshit. Show us the ponies."

“If someone is calling al Qaeda, we want to know about it.”

Yes, sir, you bet. Alright, General Hayden, you’ve been in charge of finding out if anyone is calling al Qaeda. You’ve spent hundreds of millions, maybe billions. You’ve built a data base to see if anyone is calling anyone who calls in a pattern that an al Qaeda member would call if he were making calls.
More gargantuan sums of money, time and effort.

Line ‘em up and show us the results. Let’s have the perp walk of all the al Qaedas, all the al Qaeda caller uppers you’ve located, investigated, caught, apprehended and brought to trial! With all this horseshit there must be a whole herd of ponies

1. Oh, but someone might still call Al Qaeda ...

I mean, what if bin Ladin orders a pizza? Wouldn't we want to know. Why, the U.S. operatives could follow the Domino's delivery car right to Osama himself. ;-)

When the time comes to hold the hearings on this crew of pirates, and it will, I want a front row seat to watch. They have so much to answer for
