Unfortunately, that's about the level of dialogue that's directed our foreign policy the past five years

We spent the 90's in dialogue. |

And it was during this period of "dialogue" that the omnipresent hatred for everything American grew and festered to the point that led to 9/11. |

Wow, that's a silly statement.
I'm assessing a 15 yard penalty for oversimplification abuse.

Overruled by the Chair Umpire!
You don't undertake a global effort costing a trillion dollars and tens of thousands of lives without some basic understanding of what's understandable.
Well, Bush does...but you and I shouldn't

Come on, this isn't Tennis its Football. The time to partake in engaging dialouge and nuance study ended with the pre-season (September 11, 2001). The dialogue that remains should be on the level of our military leadership and field commanders. Let the quarterbacks call the plays and this game will be won. Bin Laden's true victory will come when America locks itself into an unwinnable debate over whether we should fight back or not. |

For you to throw a flag would mean you are a referee. You are at most a commentator, and a biased one at that.  |
