I certainly don't want Barack Obama answering that phone.

Sorry, but if you can't acknowledge where the threats to America originate, then I certainly don't trust you to protect us.

Then I guess you can disqualify anyone involved in American, British, Australian or Israeli intelligence from candidacy.

To go back:

British intelligence plagiarized a 3 years old doctoral thesis as their case for war.

Australian intelligence presented exactly the same case as the Americans, they have no intelligence presence whatsoever inside Iraq

American intelligence was at best speculative, but Rumsfeld and Cheney decided to silence those who question the assessment for the war.

Overall, it was a major intelligence failure which has never been truly investigated.

All three countries held investigations and blamed widespread intelligence failure. Most everything else is speculation and often tainted by personalities of questionable credibility.

It is one thing to say you disagree with someone but another to say that someone who was at the top of his law school class at one of the best law schools in the country and has went on to excel in politics "is a total and complete idiot." When someone says something like that (or links to a blog with implied approval) I think less of them and everything I see them write. PhiGam... a little less linking and a little more thinking for yourself would be appreciated, for a change.
