Conventional wisdom as developed during the Clinton administration would lead one to presume a timely announcement by Iraq on the return of weapons inspection would be hailed on CBSNBCCBS nightly newscasts.
If however, one reads the text of the Presidents UN address (see my other post), weapons inspections is but one of the demands made on the Iraqi regime.
An announcement today will be immediately reported by Dan, Tom, and Peter as a major breakthrough and spin it as a deal to avoid war - but conventional wisdom has changed under President Bush. He doesn't lead by polls and special interest group campaign contributions - he leads by what is right for America. This is why democrats look so foolish these days and why the nightly newscasts join the UN on the worlds "Irrelevant List".
