Well, never ask and you'll never get:

How do you counter popular credulity? Seriously. Like, Saddam being behind the Sept. 11 attacks or some bin Laden-Hussein Pact. I know both of you see just getting the facts out there as the solution, and I think you're correct. But what is the counter in this specific case?

And what's his take on Wednesday's photo-op? Not so much whether or not it was staged, but what its ideological ramifications are.

What does he think of "Support Our Troops: Bring Them Home" and other anti-war slogans? Can "Support Our Troops" have any other meaning that Back the War?
