I was really hoping it was going to be along the lines of...Sorry you missed your opportunity to leave, we started bombing 5 minutes ago.

"Seven months ago, Secretary of State Colin Powell helped persuade Bush to seek U.N. approval for military action despite the objections of anti-Saddam hawks like Vice President Dick Cheney."
I for one am glad that President Bush heeded Powell's advice to go through the UN. Any time that you can kill two birds with one stone, is a good day.

Just saw that the British parliment will vote on war tomorrow. Makes me think it can't go off tonight.

The American public, by a 2-1 margin, supports military action against Iraq to remove Saddam, a slight increase from recent weeks, according to a CNN-USA Today-Gallup poll. This needs to be repeated.

He ordered the measure withdrawn to avoid an embarrassing defeat
Typical editorializing in an AP "news" article.
He withdrew the measure because voting on it was a waste of time once France declared that they would veto any and all resolutions that would set ultimatums on their buddy.

GWB: "I would just like to address these remarks to the military and civilian leadership of Iraq. Deliver Hussein to us dead or alive and we will stop our aerial capaign which begins as I speak. That is all."

"He ordered the measure withdrawn to avoid an embarrassing defeat, then gave the go-ahead for a long-planned ultimatum address."
Fair and balanced reporting! NOT!

Could somebody please explain to me how having Saddam leave the country is a solution? Do we then go in and find and destroy everything ourselves? Do all the bad guys on his side leave, too and a new, civilized government gets set up?

Weeeelllllll the bio-solid is ready to hit the fan! I just pray that that old clique does come back to haunt us...
No matter how tactical the battle plans of Generals are, when the bullets start to fly the bio-solid hits the fan!
We are either going to come out of this smelling like roses or we are not going to come out of it at all......
