Just wait for the final damning piece of evidence: Saddam in an SUV smoking a cigarette with a handgun in a shoulder holster.

FRANCE WILL BE A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THE WAR if it becomes necessary to surrender. They have lots of experience we can draw on in that area.
To: Wphile
"Just heard on my radio that France wants PROOF of the assertions that Powell just made."
Which one of them wants to step up for his/her dose of Anthrax on site in Iraq? There's your darned proof, ribbit!

Prepared statements...
That's what I first thought of with China. They would have urged delay even if atomic weapons on missiles were found. I hope people think about the ramifications of that.

To: Cosmo
If the RATS think that this is about partisan politics and that they need to rebut their own Secretary of State speaking before the UN on behalf of the U.S., then God save America. Excellent post.

He said we needed more inspections and the US and UK should give the inspectors all our classified information so that they can do their jobs "better."
PUKE.
To: Constitution Day
It would be easy to turn a blind eye to Iraq's defiance of 1441 and hope that things will improve, but we know from history that we cannot do that... Secy Powell has given us a solid presentation of the facts... Saddam must be left in no doubt of the serious consequences he is in... UK does not want war, but the situation may leave us no choice..
More info to come Feb 14... This is a moment of choice for Saddam and the Iraqi regime... also a moment of choice for the UN...
In the past, small evils slipped thru the cracks... Some of us called for action to stop the evil before it grew... Good men said WAIT... the evil is not big enough to challenge... then the evil went unchecked and grew out of control... we owe it to history not to make that mistake again.
--My paraphrase of some of UK Foreign Secy Jack Straw's words a moment ago.
To: Timesink
Are you listening to NPR or something? LOL! No, unfortunately, it was our local radio station and the idiotic professor is from Gonzaga University. What a moron. Scratch off another school my boys will not attend.

The French are the ones tipping off Iraq as to where the inspectors are headed next.
