The president should go to Congress and lay out the case against Iraq, which would put this "debate" to rest once and for all. Failure to do so would be troubling, especially when the case is a simple one — all Bush need do is demonstrate that Iraq is developing and/or has weapons of mass destruction, and has ties to terrorist groups advocating violence against the United States. Faced with that evidence, along with the bloody history of Saddam's reign, I have no doubt the majority of Americans, and their representatives in Congress, would support action against Iraq.

On the other hand, if the president does not make a compelling case for war and decides to act without Congressional approval, I for one will be gravely concerned about the precedent such action would set for a representative republic.

"The president should go to Congress and lay out the case against Iraq, which would put this "debate" to rest once and for all."

Fine...he can do it in a televised prime-time speech to the Nation, but Congressional approval has already been obtained.

The DemonRATS in the Senate are spiteful enough to undercut American Security just to make a point against Dubyuh...we shouldn't give them the opportunity, IMHO. Plus, I think there's a strong possibility that the Iraqi Regime Change could happen much sooner than the so-called experts are predicting, and the surprise factor will be priceless in saving American lives.

I agree with you Polonius.....a case must be made, most of the public pays little or no attention to world events until it blows up in their backyard...

I for one, believe the president has an excellent case...3,000 corpses and bodyparts which will never be identified...That's good enough for me...
