He was asked for his opinion.Cool. So I should accept someone's "opinion" as isolated from any other opinion or reality?
Its really not very clever to lambast him for
choosing to express his opinion when that is
what he was asked to do.
To clarify this for you, Marlowe has stated that OIL is NOT the reason we're planning on invading Iraq.
Now, N.K. comes out and ADMITS that it is doing all the things we've CLAIMED that Iraq was doing (which Iraq denied doing).
Yet N.K. does not have oil.
And we are NOT talking about invading N.K.
As for Marlowe's "opinion". It was also his "opinion" that the government of N.K. timed this announcement so we'd have to invade TWO countries at once.
In other words, the government of N.K. decided to SUICIDE so we'd have to spend more on our military.
I am not lambasting him for choosing to express his opinion.
I am lambasting him for having such an idiotic opinion.
