Bush also questioned why some Democratic lawmakers want delay in voting on a resolution allowing him to act against Saddam until the U.N. passes its measure.

Chuckling, the president said he could not imagine being an elected member of Congress and saying, "Vote for me and, oh, on matters of national security, I think I'm going to want somebody else to act."

Oh, Tommy Boy, the heat is just starting to get turned up.

Oh how I hope Little Tommy has dug himself into a hole he'll never get out of (not that it'd have to be all that deep)

he also said, (Aprox.) much more directly, that congress people should be acting on behalf of the American people, not on behalf of the UN.....

He said that he couldn't image Saddam waits for words from someone else when he want to do something...it was much harder than this report

I dont remember the exact quote, but GWB said something like...

"why would an elected rep of the US say they want the UN to decide matters that are of a vital concern to the US?"

And this man wants to be President someday? Perhaps he should sign up for 'Decision Making 101' at his nearest CC.

It is amazing to me that the same poeple who INSIST the President bow before congress have the exact opposite opinion when they are in adn near the WH.

God bless President Bush as he struggles to protect us from Weapons of Mass Murder in the hands of mass-murdering dictators such as Saddam Hussein, despite the Demoncraps efforts to hamper his efforts.

Slam Dunk! Senator Tiny Tom is about to be bulldozed and any attempt on his part to resist will mean a public trip to the woodshed.

Remember the Iranian Hostage crisis? It seems like years that then-President Jimmy Carter sweated and cried over the plight of the hostages. Remember the yellow ribbons around the "old oak tree"?

Carter excelled at victimology. The Iranian mullahs knew that his blustering was no more than empty rhetoric.

In contrast, Ronald Reagan, during his election campaign in 1980 made some not-so-veiled threats about going after those terrorists. And once he was in office, how long did it take before the Iranians decided they'd better release the hostages?

If Saddam Hussein understands that Bush is really serious, unlike the previous administration, Hussein might actually come around.

But, I'm not gonna hold my breath.

"I am highly doubtful that he will meet our demands. I hope he does, but I'm highly doubtful,"

I doubt he will either. GW knows that Saddam is in a lose/lose situation. If he lets the inspectors back and we find nuclear weapons we bomb him. If he doesn't let inspectors back in we bomb him. I would say the Days Weeks not months years comment from GW indicates that we (the USA) are ready to roll.

The President was wonderful.

I was watching and the look on his face was priceless and he slammed daschle big time without mentioning his name. The look was one of incredulous that anyone would put the UN above this Country.

We all need to remind folks in states with Senate elections that a vote for any RAT is a vote for Daschle who puts politics over the Country!

I saw Bush saying this on Fox News this morning. He looked really pi$$ed! He really slammed the Democrats.

Chuckling, the president said, " I could not imagine being an elected member of a (do nothing) congress" and then promptly planted his boot in the nearest senator's dass'hole.

Tommy boy should have never lied to GW. He also should have seen that Owen was confirmed. Both mistakes are going to hurt him.

OOOoooooo....our little Obstruction-in-Chief wannabe, li'l Tommy Boy, may have bitten off more than he can chew.

On a slightly different note...was it just me, or did both Daschle and Ritter sound like they had been comparing notes yesterday? They seemed to be saying the same things.
