Scott Ritter on Iran :We are told that the President of the United States and others in the administration have said there can be no doubt Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapons program.Well you know what, there's nothing but doubt that Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapons program.

I need to reinforce that point: There is no evidence whatsoever to back up the rhetoric that the Bush administration has put out there that Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapons program.The sole purpose of the Bush administration's policy objectives...

Short Post-season?

After the games of the last two nights, I really am afraid that the Wings will not get past the first round of the playoffs. They still are not playing consistently enough and it is too late in the season to say they WILL get it together.Last night's game against Edmonton brought back nightmares of last year's playoffs. I wonder if the Wings had flashbacks which caused them to not play as well as they could? They just CAN'T lose overtime games like that and expect to get the Cup.Tonight was a fairly good game, but they lost again in overtime....
