“I'd just like to say "thank you" to President Bush and to the men and women of the US military, who by the New York Times' own admission took out a terror-sponsoring regime in Iraq that could have constructed a nuclear weapon within months, as soon as sanctions were lifted enough for them to obtain sufficient fissile material.” MenEnoughPresidentMilitaryNew YorkHe ManMaterialsMonthsWeaponsMen And WomenIraqTerrorNuclearSufficientRegimesNuclear WeaponsPresident BushSanctionsNew York TimesAdmissionSaying Thank YouUs Military Author:Charles Foster Johnson

“In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, I watched helplessly as the Bush administration led America into a strategic blunder of historic proportions. It became painfully obvious that the executive branch of our government did not trust its military.
