Listening to Powell, was I the only one who got the sense that he basically told the UN that we don't really care what it does...it's almost like he said "you're already irrelevant....youi're just proving it live on TV in front of millions."

It was hard to tell, listening on radio, Powell's demeanor or underlying messages. Sometimes I couldn't decide if he was pleading or whining......!

Hope he looked strong on TV, like I said I had to leave and only caught it on radio. Liked what he said but I heard the French had APPLAUSE after their FM speech!!

sheesh (word of the day)

That's what I heard...a polite, "not good enough. Bye."
