That was a sarcastic comment, clearly. It couldn't have been more sarcastic, yet to you I was attacking your character? And your response to this "attack" on your character (painting you a kook, with sarcasm?) is to ask me why I'm still "lurking at the JBF". You claimed stuff you were saying the last few days was sarcasm, not personal attacks. You're now making personal attacks, and it's not justified.

My response is, a couple of out of context quotes from Bush a few months after 9/11 say to me, he probably didn't know where he was. I doubt Bush would say that now, and the CIA source that says we have "a very good idea" of where he is, is probably accurate, but there are still problems with Pakistan that have not yet been solved. If this is the only sorce Mike has for his assertion that we didn't get OBL because "we" didn't want to, I think it's rather weak. Hence, my "condescending" sarcasm. Obama says that MCCain won't go to the cave where OBL lives. So, maybe he will if he gets elected. Be interesting to see what happens next, either way.

I think you dreamed that, or are atributing that "quote" said by someone else, to me, when I never said that. If you can find it, or saved it, I'll eat my words with skepticsm, but all I recall I ever said to you on the eve of our MOC gathering was don't talk about politics when we meet up, and we'll get along fine. That's still the case. "You better watch your back" is not something I have ever said to anyone online, or in person. Not even something that sounds like that.
