Typical Elvis reply; what you can't refute you claim as emotional.

That post by Jeff'e'd has two distinct facts:

• Kerry presents himself more intellectually than Bush

• Bush has not been completely forthcoming with the American populous.

Speaking of emotion, I have ascertained that many of your posts are filled with hate towards America and anything mainstream and to the left there-of. You can't seem to endorse Bush because of his record, but rather because he's not Kerry, or any other Democrat for that matter. That's not very logical. Kind of emotional, too, wouldn't you say? However, from all accounts as to how the GOP does business, I suppose it is their definitive modis operand. And those are just unemotional facts as I see them.

As far as Franks is concerned, seems he left out that part about being visually upset upon receiving the warning order to invade Iraq. He was somewhat less than highly amused. And does it surprise you that he lashed out at Powell after Powell publicly criticized his war plan? And can you say that his plan for fewer troops has been a success? No one in my professional circle thinks so. And even a civilian should find it odd that he chose retirement in the middle of a war instead of seeing it through.
