Gee...what happened to "Show Their Cards" -

I was hoping Bush meant what he said...guess not

they did, the game has folded, no takers, we win.

I fear you may be correct. GW may have just reached and is about to pass his "read my lips" moment. Time will tell. He has staked everything on going in and winning quickly. I think it will be done, but if it isn't we can stick a fork in him for 2004. I think he realizes that and is making decisions based upon America's needs and his oath of office and not his future political career.

I pray he is successful. Not for future politics, but for the future PERIOD.

And just what was Bush to do to MAKE them cooperate? Bush is not at fault here - look at Chirac, look at the liberals in England, look at the minor players refusing to stand with America. We are seeing their cards.

My complaint is that we are allowing a debating society to be given the status of a world police force that does not prevent the criminals of the world from their actions but prevents the innocents from protecting themselves from the dictators and terrorists.
