3. He's making the point...
...that some of it's really wishful thinking, which some of it is. The only part of that discussion where I took issue was where he didn't let the guy describe how Jessica Lynch says that the army's hyped up her story, let him finish, anyway.

Later.

4. Duh. So is the treaty on developing biological weapons...
...but is anyone stupid enough to believe that it stops the US from developing these weapons?

5. DOUBLE DUH!!!!!!!!!!!! j/k
On one hand, you're saying you're "stupid" to believe in ONE treaty, and on the other, you're saying you're not stupid to believe in another equally pie-in-the-sky as the first.

Later.

6. two wrongs make a right argument
It's ok for the US to violate the Geneva Convention because our enemies do.

7. Ventura's all over the map
It's hard to believe someone can be so right some of the time and so wrong the rest of the time.
