Maybe Dubya Heard that Camels are "Ships of the Desert"

In its latest mugging of the American taxpayer, the Bush administration has requested $75 billion to buy submarines for the war on terrorism. That's right, submarines! It's comforting to know that Washington is not taking the threat of al-Qaida's cave-based naval fleet lightly.
Here's an idea: Why not just give $75 billion to Dubya's industrialist buddies and spare the rest of us this insult to our intelligence.

Another $75 billion diverted from our schools, hospitals, and infrastructure--and people still wonder why al-Qaida hasn't bothered to attack us again since 9/11.
Here's a tip for the military hunting Osama bin Laden: Beam your SONAR on those mountains and listen for the cave echoing with laughter.
