Yeah for all his faults, and my desire to see someone smack that smug shit eating grin off his face.. he's a political master who's actions will be studied for decades to come as the consumate manipulator.
I'm quite sure the guys deserved to get arrested. But if you look at what they are saying "we believe they were looking to start stockpiling chemical weapons" it's pretty obvious they were all talk no action. Even though of course that could have done something in the future I believe it's mainly spin and OH SO CONVENIENT timing.

ugh.. seeing Downer Syndrome on the news last night trying to tell us the pirate attack on the cruise ship was terrorism just in case we forgot for a single second to be afraid of the terrorists under the bed was almost too much.
