No? I didn't think so....
Well.
Glad you saved me the effort of answering that!

[/b][/quote]Um, excuse me.....

Talk about taking statements out of context. :rolleyes:

There were two questions in there:

Don't you think that the American people should know - particularly the senators, congressmen, and governors who, regardless of their party affiliation, are objecting to this deal - what it is that Bush knows and we don't?


Then I went on to say

This is what people complained about with the Cheney incident.

Not that he shot someone accidentally, but that the administration has such a penchant for secrecy.


Then, I asked the second question:

The hearings on this deal were held in secret, and now you suggest the existence of aome secret reason that makes this deal OK.

Perhaps you'd like to speculate as to what that reason might be?


Clearly, my "No? I didn't think so" remark apllied to the second question only.

If it wasn't clear, allow me to clarify that point now.

So......again:

Don't you think that the American people should know - particularly the senators, congressmen, and governors who, regardless of their party affiliation, are objecting to this deal - what it is that Bush knows and we don't?

I'm really not interested in what you think he may know that we don't. I'm merely interested in knowing whether you think we're entitled to know it or not.
