Subject: Your position on Doves

 Tony Blair says bin Laden wired cash to Atta.
 I half-trust Blair...

 True, it's a whore media, but it would be a mistake to assume
 everything ever produced by them MUST be inaccurate.

 True...

 Before we say Bush MADE it happen we'll need real proof.
 It's my guess they'll profit handsomely from Sept 11, but hell, he's the president.

 Blair, Blair, Blair.
 Maybe he's lying, too?

 Now, now, I realize you haven't had a chance to respond
 to Blair, Blair, Blair, but his word means something, right?

 Objection!
 You said the media couldn't be trusted.
 Now you're implying they can.
 I assume once we win, reporters will be allowed in.
 Once we're back in, repairs can be made IF they have no water.
 It's my best guess they didn't hit the water plants.

 Could we compare them to the children who died
 with Koresh in Waco? Being born in a country that
 just paid for the destruction of downtown NY is,
 indeed, some very bad luck.

 Nobody is happy that we're at war.
 Nobody wants those Afghan babies hurt.

 Well, the WTC DID fall.
 Let's not act like there's no provocation for what our soldiers are doing.

 Dude, you can't look at it that way.
 If you walk around reminding yourself that a billion people will eat no food today
 you'll soon be too depressed to go on and your kids won't have a dad.

 You've been very polite and all, but I can't  understand why people see me in bed with Smirk.
 It may be that you are so far to the left that you see me & Bush in the same frame.

 People were starving 100 years before you were born and they'll be starving 100 years after you die.
 You gotta live your life while you have it.

 I hope I've explained myself,
