"It no longer matters what they think,"

[pms]

I forgot.  My point was going to be that I thought "they" were using the
best defense, ie, the offense, because really, it's their fundementalist
element that has every simularity to the "terrorists".  Perhaps the left
needs to be making that parallel as it's questioning trying to get different
results, with the same old method, ie, using any means necessary and still
not reaching our stated objectives.
