 Ok , I feel double-dog-dared , and have never done this sort of
 thing , but if you're still willing to make the bet , I'll=
 agree
 to Gary Triest's criteria in message , March 23 :
  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lpny_discuss/message/13429 .

 I'll take $500 .

 As you pointed out in a note to Bonnie , 
  "they are, after all, the principal reason we are fighting."
 
 But let me include a quote from Harry Browne's column today=
 from
  http://www.AmericanLibertyFoundation.org :

All Hail the Liberators :
Bury the Past

And we certainly wouldn't want to remind anyone
that this whole crusade began not as a quest to
liberate the Iraqi people, but because George
Bush claimed that Saddam Hussein had weapons of
mass destruction and was threatening the U.S.
(Remember the daily speeches to staged
audiences in which George Bush shouted "Saddam
Hussein will disarm or we will disarm him!" and
was greeted with enthusiastic cheering?)

No weapons have been found. No laboratories
have been found. No evidence has been found.

And I doubt that George Bush ever really
believed they would be found. That's why the
rationale for killing people changed as
regularly as George Bush changes his military
windbreakers.


 If you still want to bet , let's get it on .

 I look forward to your check .
