banjeroo: don't you sometimes feel like we might just be in the middle of a real live Wag the Dog? I mean, isn't it great that they stopped the terrorist plot, but isn't it hard to feel sure that it was ever really in the works? and the weird rhetoric about winning the war on terror? and isn't all of this kind of underscored by Bush insisting on the wrong name?

banjeroo: YES!
