Time for my Unpatriotic Thought of the Day, while watching CNN. Government representatives express concerns that drug trafficking seems to be used to support terrorism.

No shit, Sherlock. The CIA has been using cocaine to fund terrorist activities for twenty years now. You could have asked them--you're both part of the same government after all, I'm sure they'd be happy to help you research this phenomenon.
Right. Now off to work, to do my part to help the economic recovery of US economy and to do my part to make this country more what it could be and less what it is.

SO ture - except - they don't seem to share information. Reminds me of the Associated Student body at SJSU.

On two fronts. One: You just figured out the federal government does not communicate internally?! This is not news, I doubt it's ever been news. Bureaucrats are interested in one thing: protecting their fiefdoms from other bureaucrats. It all very medieval. I certainly hope the thought has been roaming your brain awhile. Two: They would never ask the CIA because theoretically, they would like you to believe we do not engage in such policies. They would probably all like to believe in the Easter Bunny too.

Point of fact, prior to the "war," Afgahistan was the world's leading grower of opium poppies.

One man's terrorism is another man's patriotic struggle to liberate his country.
