Exhibiting a great deal of that much-debated "gravitas," President Bush told the U.N. last week that, either they get to work stopping Saddam Hussein or the U.S. will go it alone.

And because of his leadership, somewhere between 65 and 80 percent of the American people support him. Over the weekend, Secretary of State Colin Powell reiterated the President's words from last week and said that we need answers from the U.N. in, "a matter of weeks, not months..." It clearly looks like war. And one big question is: What does war mean for the economy?

This came out about the time you posted. The war is still on, hopefully sooner rather than later.
