I just felt like ranting on a Sunday morning, comments, criticism and additions welcome.

An awesome rant BUMP!

[NonValueAdded]

Pretty darn clear, isn't it?

[NordP]

Wish YOU were at that Security Council meeting!!!

Great job!

[DCPatriot]

I have some words that trump this.....

"I, George Walker Bush, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and I will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States."

[Gritty]

Sure. All the people now objecting to these resolutions voted for them in the first place. Who knows? They may even have read them.

But, they didn't really mean them. When they voted, they had their hands behing their backs, fingers crossed. So, it doesn't count!

Their real purpose was to forstall, hopefully forever, the use of force to implement them. In the end their actions will probably cost more lives, both Iraqi and American and her allies.

It's cowardice and double dealing, we know. So do they, although they will call it "courage".

So, what are we ultimately going to do about it?

Don't you think that it is at all suspicious that Hans Blix came into the information about the drones so late in the game that the info was not included in his preliminary report and that we now have evidence of one drone, just days before the security council is to vote on the war resolution?

[piasa]

This one works for me:

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of the President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the United States."

[WOSG]

I guess you are saying the UAVs constitute a "smoking gun" violation?

[William Terrell]

And where's our Constitution? I don't see only of it mentioned. All I see is UN crap. If this gives the president authority to wage war on a foreign country then the UN security council voting against it means no war. And if the president goes to war without the UN apporval then all these words mean nothing.

If you're going to dance to the band, you have to dance to the tune it chooses to play or you're a hypocrite.

Here is President Bush's authority to go to war:



He needs no more.

It's so obviously authorizes an attack it's embarassing that we are still dicking around with the UN.
