           as I cast my vote for Meg Whitman. I am independent, but I
           typically vote Democrat (e.g., I voted for Boxer). However, I

2/18    If not 0 then 1 - wasn't that the basis of the logic of the bush
        administration on torture?  If we do it, it's legal, and since
        torture is illegal, therefore we don't torture?
        \_ Bush is a great computer scientist.
           \_ He must be, given that he defeated the inventor of the Internet

2/20    Ok serious question, NOT political.  This is straight up procedural.
        Has it been declared that we didn't find WMD in iraq? (think so).
        So why did we go into iraq (what was the gain), and if nobody really
        knows, why is nobody looking for the reason?
        \_ Political stability, military strategy (Iran), and to prevent
           Saddam from financing terrorism.

This crusade, this war on terrorism, is going to take a long time President Bush "I want to remind the American people that the prime suspect's Osama Bin Laden organisation is in a lot of countries," Mr Bush told reporters on the White House lawn. He was speaking after returning from discussions with top advisers at the Camp David presidential retreat on plans for a military response to the attacks, in which more than 5,000 people are believed to have died. Mr Bush and his officials again stressed that any state harbouring terrorists would face what Vice-President Dick Cheney called the "full wrath" of American military might. Earlier Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said the US was engaged in "a large multi-headed effort that probably spans 60 countries, including the United States". Mr Bush praised Pakistan for its offer to help the US and said he was pleased by the "very positive" response from other countries such as India and Saudi Arabia. The BBC Washington correspondent says the US would like to build a firm coalition of states supporting its action before launching any retaliation, even if that means some delay. Opinion polls show strong support among Americans for the use of military force against whoever was responsible for last Tuesday's attacks. Mr Bush has singled out Osama Bin Laden as the prime suspect. But his top officials stressed on Sunday that the problem was much wider than just one man. Vice-President Cheney singled out the Egyptian group Islamic Jihad on NBC's Meet the Press programme. Threat to Taleban Mr Bin Laden issued a statement on Sunday denying any involvement in the attacks. Mr Bush has backed this up by telephoning Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf to thank him for his government's support. The Taleban has warned Pakistan that it faces war if it allows the US to launch an attack from its territory. Noble Eagle At the same time, the president's military advisers are concerned that the immediate threat of attacks on US civilian targets is not over and a plan - Operation Noble Eagle - has been launched to improve defences. Pentagon The extent of the damage at the Pentagon has become clearer Warplanes are patrolling the skies above major US cities and military installations, warship battle groups are on guard off the country's east and west coasts, and tens of thousands of reservists have been called up to protect the homeland. Throughout New York memorial services are being held on Sunday, with thousands expected to attend the main ceremony at St Patrick's cathedral. The message from White House aides is that Mr Bush wants ordinary Americans to defy those who carried out the attacks by returning to the normal course of their lives as soon as possible. New York's Stock Exchange, which has been closed since the attack on the heart of the city's financial district, is due to reopen on Monday - as is the US baseball season, suspended as a mark of respect.
