There was nothing in your (yes, admirably lengthy) post actually addressing the issue I'd raised -- namely, President Bush taking cover in 1998's House Resolution 4655 and presuming that a vague policy of regime change justified a preventive invasion of a sovereign nation.

For a post that does explain why what you are implying is false, and gives references to prove it, see my post #64 to you.

If you consider the post too long for your tastes, here are the last two paragraphs, as supported by the rest of the post:

"The 2003 invasion of Iraq was conducted in full compliance with U.S. and international law. Those who say or imply otherwise are lying.

"This is not a rant. These are the facts, and this is the truth."

50% of the American public reads your post on law, and treaty in the US Iraq invasion. It's short and factual.

However that same 50% hears "Blah Blah Blah....." and waits to hear what Dan Rather or Bill Maher tells them to think.

Most of them think Paul O'Neil is the half brother of Shaquille O'Neil.
