You know, if Dubya were one tenth the murderous bloodthirsty imperialistic stormtrooper cowboy that the foaming-at-the-mouth rabid left says he is, we wouldn't be dropping leaflets with reward offers. We'd be dropping leaflets with an ultimatum to give him up in twenty-four hours, allow a monitored exodus, and then MOAB the place.

I'm not saying that's an appropriate strategy, of course--I'm just pointing out that that's what the George Bush of their fevered fantasies would do. Or perhaps he wouldn't even give the warning--he'd just level the town. You know, like most other rulers in the region (who they seem determined to keep in power) would.
