Oh please, There haven't been any killings of US soldiers in 5 days.

The number of deaths in Iraq is starting to drop off.

We don't need the damn French, and there is nothing in the article to suggest that Bush is going to go grovelling before them.

Address this please. Wolfowitz said we would be down to 30,000 troops in the country by the fall. He was wildly mistaken. Our strategy was partially based on "his brilliant analysis". Should wolfie walk the plank?

IMHO Bush is simply going to the UN to satisfy the non-stop criticism from the left...knowing that they will not agree on anything.
This is exactly what he's done before.

It's amazing how short people's memories are.
