Iraq already saying this is all a US "fabrication"

You can hide but we will find you Saddam

[RoseofTexas]

Just a little side note, heard on Fox that Sen. or Congressmen (can't remember which) Rockerfeller(sp?) said that the evidence presented by the administration was not very CONVIENCING!! I PRAY AND HOPE POWELL BLOWS THEM OUTTA THE WATER THIS MORN!! God Bless America!!

"Secretary Powell is a fine man, an excellent public servant, and serves the President. I support his DIPLOMATIC position, which is only one arm of the tools we have at our disposal."

Bump.

We are watching with you all. One of those great homeschool days - we are watching, then discussing, then writing a short paper on this speech!
(we will be praying, too!!)

Biden certainly seems to have done a Linda Blair 180 this morning, don't know about Rockefeller?

[HankReardon]

Yes, the casing for chemical weapons is mentioned previously in this thread. I was just saying that the term "smoking gun" refers properly to a weapon that has been used.

[hoosiermama]

I'll not touch that one ! LOL

[epluribus_2]

we've had enough Neville Chamberlain moments already with regard to Iraq - I hope so.

[TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday!]

Freep Okra's poll while waiting!

[Kip Lange]

Today may indeed be the Anti-Munich...or just another Munich...

Someone gave a great answer to your question, but I recommend that you go out and rent 'Thirteen Days' which is the story of the Cuban Missile Crisis, and how the Kennedy's handled it. EXCELLENT movie in my opinion, and I am a pretty big movie fan...JFK

[Right_in_Virginia]

Thanks...

[RoseofTexas]

What did biden say??

[Molly Pitcher]

LOL. Sometimes it's just too hard to resist last dose of caffeine...

[Quilla]

LOL - Thanks.

[Carolinamom]

Jim Angle reporting that Germany has "said" that "Let's give it one more chance before we break it off." Interesting.....inching toward a 2nd resolution?

[Miss Marple]

Fox just showed Iraqi comb-over ambassador licking his lips...looked pretty nervous to me. HA.
