In all honesty Duke....I think that element of fear is why we get results. I think the election showed that the US feels safe with Bush....mainly because our enemies don't. It's his strongest point.

This is an older article....but I wonder if the world knows stuff like this happens?

The United States has flown the first weapons of mass destruction and extended-range missiles out of Libya.

The White House said the first components of Libya's missile WMD arsenal arrived in the United States on Tuesday after a last-minute agreement was reached with the Libyan regime. The White House said the shipment was composed of 25 tons of equipment that included uranium enrichment components and documents on Libya's strategic programs.

Officials said a C-17 air transport flew the Libyan WMD to the Oak Ridge nuclear weapons plant in Tennessee, the leading U.S. facility for the storage of weapons-grade uranium. They said the shipment consisted of UF-6 uranium-hexafluoride, required for uranium enrichment, components for centrifuges, and guidance systems for extended Scud C and D missiles.
