Bush saying "France has already shown it's cards" is a very clever way of publicly turning it on France if U.S. and allies decide that they don't want the vote. I don't think there is much advantage to this resolution, its prety much a rehash of 1441.

I think it goes further than that. I think that saying that france has already played its card implicity says that Bush has yet to play his card. Perhaps he was saying to ChIraq, 'we know exactly why you are behaving this way, and when the time comes, we're going to play that card.'
