Thank you, Jeff. I did not get to watch the speech. However, reading it and watching the PResident's speech to the UN today - and your summation - make me want to stand up and cheer! Thank you and God bless you!
Although there was a lot siad about the UN and it's "charter" that I did not agree with in the President's speech, the part about Iraq and the partt about the US taking the path required for our own defense and the UN members choosing whether they want to be a part of it were very good.
We do not need Kofi's permission, we do not need a UN resolution, we do not need a UN colaition ... all we need is to be threatened and have a President willing to nullify that threat and a congress willing to fund it. IOW, all we need is our representatives to decide to do so.
