PRESIDENT>....1441 ....said he must disarm...YES we'll call for a vote...no matter what the count is....we want to see people stand up and say...time for people to show their cards....where they stand when it comes to saddam..

[prairiebreeze]

time for people to show their cards and let the world know where they stand with Saddam

[Wyatt's Torch]

"Show the utility of the United Nations Security Council."

Brilliant

[Stefan Stackhouse]

"You bet we're calling for a vote, no matter what the whip count says. . . we ant them to go on record."

[mhking]

Mark Knoller, CBS: Problem with going sans UN approval?

[Lady Jag]

He might have gotten some bad news or be expecting good news.

[dep]

[section9]

"No matter what the whip count is, we're callin' for a vote!"

Be Seeing You,

[ET(end tyranny)]

I have to agree with others. Something is "off" with him.

Maybe they have strong knowledge that something fairly big, terrorist related will occur when the war starts. But, they don't know exactly where or how.

It would certainly make you leery of proceeding, even though you knew you had to.

It just seems like something heavier than this press conference or potential war is on his mind. Like his full attention is not on this press conference. jmo

[Unknown Freeper]

"No. I'm not worried about that." (the UN)
hehehehe

[Snowy]

Picture this...

Bush becomes silent, looks at his watch, and says...

"As of a minute ago, the liberation of Iraq began. Let's have a moment of silence...."

[Howlin]

Nice try. Not playing. Take your disruption somewhere else.

[goldylight]

This is absolutely horrible. my wife just walked out of the room. He is not on point tonight at all and is avoiding answering direct questions.

[mombonn]

Says will call for a vote regardless of what it might be. In your face, UN!

[Cinnamon Girl]

He looked very upset up until he evaded the question of whether Saddam would be removed or killed, at which point he gave a tiny smile and said "there will be a regime change." War is within a few days.

[SaveTheChief]

Moran and Gregory just insulted him.....

Does that surprise you? The media is packed with people who insult him on a daily basis.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Terry Moran reminds me of the smart aleck kid who thinks he's the hot shot in the class. He stands up and asks "what went wrong?"

Bush reminded him gently, like the child he is, that his oath isn't to the peoples and governments of Europe--but to the Constitution.

Terry Moran, Ron Fournier and David Gregory are going to be the Helen Thomas's of the 21st Century.

[CheneyChick]

I liked that "No"!
