I think the real point is: the left will not support a war even IF we are attacked. Didn't you mean I think the real point is: the left will not support a war even IF we are attacked. AGAIN?!?!?!?
To: Howlin
CBS Radio says France wants "proof" of what Powell said.I have a feeling that W & Co. will tell France to get bent.
To: Timesink
When I say "waffling" I do not mean to imply that they're taking any positions. I think everybody's slightly caught off guard by the amount and *orderliness* of the information. This is the final test for the UN, and it's pass-fail...

Brian Williams on MSNBC to Bob Woodward wondered aloud ,if all this was news to Bush,if he had been aware of this before !!! That is really insulting, but it backfires. It just shows how profoundly these airheads just DON'T "GET" PRESIDENT BUSH.

Brian Williams is such a moron. He asked Woodward if Bush knew about this? Say WHAT? I can't believe this.
Hey Williams...just who does Powell work for?

Powell gave a devastating presentation. Many libs must be calling their psychiatrists right now.

I would have to wonder if they would even unite against the enemy if something worse did happen. I truly believe it's all political with them.
If clinton were president when this happened..and as much as I can't stand him.. I don't know if I could have bit my tongue with anything he offered. I would have suggested that he partner up with the top republican and meet in the middle and set aside partisan arguments.. Is that too much to ask for the jerks who are screaming against this to set aside partisan politics?

"Unreal... the Russian Foreign Minister (speaking now on CSPAN) is calling for more inspections... calls for UN to fully support more inspections. We will provide an airplane for aerial monitoring... if need be, more inspectors. *GAG*
We hope that his dialogue will be concrete and extremely productive."
Give me a break! Maybe if you hope and wish REAL HARD (while singing "Kumbaya") Saddam will just go away!

the narrow, constricting prism of Vietnam Agreed -- and the media also seem to have a mindset now of the "great power of the press" -- how they can turn people against the horror of war(or some such BS)

The left won't even support a war if we are attacked. All the pinko poly sci professors are studying the state-of-the-art French surrender techniques.
To: Wphile
The left will not support a war until we are attacked. That's it.The left won't support a war even if we are attacked. I'm telling you, it's what they WANT.
To: Howlin
What the hell do the Frogs want for proof? A suitcase nuke set off at the base of the Eiffel Tower? Look the only reason the surrender-monkeys don't have the stones to back us is because about 40% of their population is now Arab and they're afraid of riots and attack within their own country.

You would think the Russians would have learned their lesson from 1941 when they repeatedly ignored reports that Hitler was to attack the Soviet Union. They waited for their "smoking gun"; well they got it alright!!
To: Timesink
Oh, yeah, they didn't care what he said, they had their own plans mapped out.
the point is they probably already know the things he laid out are true, but for whatever reasons, they don't care.
To: Mo1
The Russian ambassador just mentioned something about inspections & the end of March of this year--and the lifting of sanctions on Iraq.
Although I can't see it, did Judy Woodruff's head blow up?
To: AmericanInTokyo
You go, Japanese. It's about time you took your own defense seriously.
