there are many countries with a higher standard.

Yes, that's true. I should have said "much of the world." But out of
the almost three hundred countries in the world, the U.S. has
two-hundred below it by most measures, and that's what we're talking
about here. The "have-not" countries seem to be havens for terrorist
groups.

and we are truely free to enjoy life, liberty,
and the pursuit of flying little airplanes.

I shutter to think what
would happen to me if I wrote the above in downtown Tehran.

you would not make many friends.

(which is
the next place we need to take off the map.)

Let's see... they been burning American flags in the streets of Iran
for thirty years. Martin, we already know what the fundamentalist
movement there thinks of the U.S. Next target? Says who? The next
U.S. president, that's who (I elect that man to office.) The
significant questions for the next U.S. administration a 1. Is it a
safe haven for terrorists? 2. Is the WMD program a significant threat
or, just as bad, unknown.

I for one, will support any invasion to discover those facts if
inspectors are not happy. I am however, against long occupation, like
our situation in Iraq. Why is it: the bleeding hearts always favor
Isolationism? If one sticks his head in the sand and says: I have no
proof of nuke development, therefore I shall not invade; that does not
stop a functioning warhead from entering his city once OBL's guys
finally get enough componants somewhere to put one together.
