The debacle at the UN may have helped Bush, but also note that it has damaged Blair. Blair has been losing ground since 1441's deadline.
No doubt he is a brave man, but the effort to help him may, in fact, destroy him. In a few days, we will know.

I am glad that GW has men around him with differing views, and listens to them all before making his final judgement. All smart and successful presidents have done this. I do not think going to the UN will end up being a bad thing at the end of the day. I disagree with the writer that this has been a failed diplomacy attempt by the UK and USA. France, Germany, and most importantly, the UN, are the ones that stand to lose respect around the world.
