Blix Bluffs...
Remember Hans Blix, the UN weapons inspector who claimed the US and its allies rushed prematurely into Iraq?

But he wasn't a threat.
I'm a software engineer who's married and has two daughters. I'm a Christian who tries to let my faith inform my political views, rather than vice versa. I do lean to the conservative side on many issues. Politically, I favor a government that holds people responsible for their behavior and well-being while helping the less fortunate become self-sustaining and contributors to society.
