Thanks. As the Chinese guy was speaking, I saw Powell take a long, deep breath of disgust.
To: RoseofTexas
You got that right. The idiot poli sci professor on the radio said flat out, "I don't trust President Bush and I am very skeptical of his policies."
Good Lord.

My fave was the picture showing the "cleaned up" weapons site WITH THE U.N. VEHICLES PULLING UP TO THE SIDE GATE!
God save us from fools.
To: aristeides
War is more like a civil suit, IMO. Preponderance of the evidence is quite sufficient for me.
The criminal trials come later.
To: Dog
The responses at this meeting will not be significant. The diplomats who are speaking had what they would say prepared and approved by their respective administrations before they arrived. The Chinese diplomat would have said that if Powell had shown naked pictures of Barbara Boxer, or if Powell had shown pictures of Saddam feeding anthrax spores directly to infants.
What will be important is what Chinese diplomats say tomorrow, and what French diplomats say tomorrow, and so forth.
And when I say important, I mean in a relative way. In the grand scheme of things, what matters is what the President thinks is important, and what the American people think is important.

To: Maringa
The only way to convince these opponents of war is to show them a picture of Saddam with a drill in his hand hugging a missle - but then again they will say he was just putting up curtains!

Sad, but true.

And he already has said that he will act with a willing coalition. Action isn't in doubt. Only who will come with us.

To: cyncooper
Yes Diane did acknowledge that. I believe it's more imporant that the slimey character of this nitwit still manages to ooze out between the cracks.
Despite the evidence that Powell provided, she's "sorry" he could present it. Good Lord woman!
To: All
Jack Straw sounds like Austin Power's more serious brother.
Yeah baby!

Just heard on my radio that France wants PROOF of the assertions that Powell just made.
Why? So the duplicitous little cheese-eating surrender monkey Vichy swilling motherf%#kers can pass on sources and methods to Baghdad.
God I hate the French.
Be Seeing You,
Chris
