Reminds me of the posturing the general did, when he admitted that they had cleaned up Zarqawi before they took pictures of him, as an "act of respect". Respect, my ass, they were preparing the trophy for mounting. If the insurgents had done the same thing in order to take pictures of one of our dead generals, think of the outrage here at home. But our people are very adept at using language, and our people very gullible. Oh, the dynamics of cult leaders and cult members. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=chiggerbit@rigorousintuition>chiggerbit</A> at: 6/13/06 12:39 pm<br></i>
