Reply #51: He gets it from Poppy [View All]

One of the most frightening things I ever saw was a live press conference during Desert Storm right after Saddam launched SCUD's into Israel.

Israel had dozens of armed aircraft on the tarmac waiting to launch a retaliatory strike against Iraq - which would have blown the whole ME apart.

Poppy was totally incoherent, wild-eyed and jerking around like a meth addict - he was not in control of his faculties.

Luckily, cooler heads in the Pentagon refused to release the Coalition IFF codes to the IAF and the crisis was averted.

When things go bad for the Bushies - they simply can't handle it.
