The military has been ready to go for one month. Every day Bush delays gives Hussein another day to prepare booby traps and dirty tricks. While Bush runs off for more talking at a luxury resort, the troops do more sitting in desert sand storms, and they will certainly face increased risks when Bush finally abandons (if he ever does) the misguided Powell induced UN quagmire.

Having despised Bill Clinton, I can only say that watching Bush on tv today not answering one question about his backtracking on the 3/17 "deadline" or on his vow that all nations must vote to "show their cards," puts him squarely in the Clinton mold.

It's past the time freepers started calling for a real conservative replacement candidate for 2004!

Every day Bush delays gives our counter-terrorism forces another day to locate and defang Hussein's terrorist-delivered retaliation threat. As much as the President cares about the safety of our troops, I believe he cares about the safety of our civilians even more.

Hmmm. Let's see - a month ago we were still waiting for Turkey to decide if we could use bases there for a northern front, and many units were still waiting for their heavy equipment to arrive. Maybe you were getting your news from a different source than I was.

Ahhh ... now it all becomes clear. Making political points over the execution of the buildup for a war, and doing it by distorting the facts. Some conservative you are.
