But I'm not the type of person to drop names and claim superiority.

You need to stop being *wowed* by Webb's resume. He's a human being of high intelligence, but he's NOT, I repeat NOT God's gift to Military Science. It's a shame that I fear some people do not evolve out of the "Idol worship" mindset.

In other words, I trust myself.

Again, and for the umpteenth time, Webb's intentions may be positive but IF HE VOTES for this bill, he is inadvertently feeding the beastie known as "The Military Industrial Complex."

Finally, I have no doubt that Jim Webb sports a much higher IQ than myself ... but that does NOT make this Occupation of Iraq any MORE COMPLEX, LEGAL or MORAL. :shrug:
