Of course, that means redeploying the shipborne forces from the Mediterranean through the Suez Canal, around Arabia and then offloading the men and equipment and deploying them forward - but don't let that little detail get in the way of your attempts to politicize this matter.
And how do you explain away Bush issuing a Mar 17 deadline with there still no Turkey approval, Mr real conservative, smart guy? Stop being such a lemming!
Ah, the last recourse of the cornered Bush-basher - "LEMMING!" "CHEERLEADER!" All you needed for the trifecta was to toss in "BUSHBOT!" Sorry, but I have criticized Bush many times on this forum, so your charges won't stick - but folks hopefully will remember how you have tried to politicize this debate. No one else, other than a troll who is currently suspended, has tried to make political points against Bush, but you sure did.
But back to your pointless point - diplomacy normally consists of a series of deadlines until you have worked out all alternate possibilities. Bush is trying to get his ally Tony Blair as much political cover as possible, and is in turn taking some heat from a few folks who would normally support him. I will debate those folks and understand their impatience, I'd like the military to be rolling now as well. But you, bucko, who uses this matter to make a political point, this ain't the time or the place. The elections are a long ways off, and you'll have plenty of time to spread your slime once this war is over.
