... and therein (unintended pun or no) lies the problem. One unreasonable set of politicians versus a reasonable set, fine. Two unreasonable sets ... oops, I am beginning to have recurring nightmares of false dawns.

Cap,
Welcome to the half-wit's half light. There are so many inanities in the NYT today (Front Page, Powell Response, etc.) it would kill the server. It would be funny if it weren't so...

Just before I go to bed, this my contribution to the thread. "Those who think that they can say, '"Were only going to have a stimulus package, but let's forget tax relief,' misunderestimate me.

This from the front page of today's New York Times:
The midair crash occurred about 50 miles southeast of China's Hainan Island, in what Americans described as international waters.
Pardon the two-day delay in responding, but exactly how does a midair crash occur in international (or any other kind of) waters? [tongue-in-cheek e]

The Orion is typically a submarine hunter (although this particular one wasn't, of course, they just wanted to listen to local Chinese FM radio stations). And the Chinese air force is usually out of its depth when dealing with Americans. Ergo, in international waters!

I knew someone out there would be able to explain it. Gooood DAY!
