Getting Scarier all the Time
Looks like one this week's Onion stories is already out of date.
CNN is reporting that CIA Director George Tenet testified to a congrssional committee that North Korea has ballistic missile capable of hitting U.S.
This news comes only 1 day after Osama bin Laden reminded the U.S. that al Qaeda is still a threat.
And yet the president and military still seems to be singularly focused on Iraq. While I'm sure that Saddam is up to no good and that eventually there does need to be some change in Iraq, I think that it's becomming increasingly clear that he's only our third most important enemy at the moment.
So why is it that the Bush administration still seems so intent on pushing for war in Iraq? Why not finish off Osama and deal with North Korea first?
Maybe I do need to go out and get my duct tape and plastic sheeting.
