A Thousand Talking Points of Light

If it turns out xoxoxoBruce is right, will you apologize for calling him a crazy?

Someone might just come along and post some links that support his story completely. Now in that situation, most honorable people would admit they were wrong, and apologize for being insulting.

The alternative being that you'd attack the articles I posted, attack me for posting them, claim that a minute difference between the articles and Bruce's posting justified your calling him crazy, and blame your behavior on someone else. That's the approach the current administration is teaching by example, anyway.

Are you any better than they are?

Oh, and as to how the oil pipeline attacks are going...

They're going very, very badly, thanks.

That link goes to an article from Sunday's International Herald Trib about the fact that the attacks on the oil pipelines have become so sophisticated that they're now the basis for a massive operation which hijacks the fuel being imported into Iraq in trucks, and sells it to other countries for huge profits.

We don't seem to be doing that great of a job at frustrating their side, if their side is raking in the profits from the pipeline bombing operations.

Facts are just so darned inconvenient, aren't they?
