If we are to attack Iraq before the November elections, September 11th is the only day we could attack without it appearing totally political, Otherwise, we would probably wait till January....

I'm predicting 12- 15th of November, about when the cooler weather arrives and the mid-term elections are over.

Even if the pubbies GAIN seats in the election, the RATS will say "you lost your mandate on the war". They will oppose the war before the election, and after it, too.

They have already politicized this war, and are working towards an American defeat as a way of easing Hitlery into the White House in 2004. Why should she wait until 2008 if she can say Bush "bungled the war" in 2002?

D-Day for the liberation of Iraq is September 11, 2002.

"September 11th is the only day we could attack without it appearing totally political"

THATS a good point. And its despicable that, not only must we focus on fighting terrorism, we must also diminish our party's vulnerability to political cheapshots by the Dems.

At the very least, they could hold our coats for us.

Too bad we can't arrange for the Clintons to be there on some futile peace "process".
