sidestepping the international organization in going to war in March.

Sidestepping is it? Hmm, correct me if I am wrong, but didn't 90+ countries sign on before? Didn't the Security Council vote unanimously for it? What am I missing here?

No, the UN Sec. COuncil did not vote for it.

Notwithstanding this fact, we have several allies working with us in Iraq, which hardly makes it a "unilateral" undertaking.

When the left says we're "unilateralist" they mean that we didn't subordinate our policy to FRANCE and that makes them sick.

Like Dean said the other day, US foreign policy is subject to what France thinks.
