he won't listen .. but good try

The United States of America will rescue the Iraqi people from Saddam's HELL. We will keep our families safe from terrorist. We will also remind all of these COWARDS what we find when we finish.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

U.S. officials say there are already secret surrender negotiations underway with the commanders of some Iraqi military units. Rumsfeld says that before the shooting starts all Iraqi units will be given one last chance to give up.

I sure hope this is disinformation and that we are actually trying to get Saddam to knock off some of his commanders -- because that's the likely effect of telegraphing this to him.

Ivan, it looks to me like Blair and Britain are going to bail on us.

We cannot and should not wait a month to get the support of the pygmies in the UN. If we must, we'll go it alone. It won't be pretty, and maybe we'll be a lot tougher on Europe after this. I hope we'll try to be sympathetic to Britain, but if Tony goes wet, or is booted, and Britain bails, that will be the end of Britain's seat at the top table. We will no longer be able to count on you. Sorry, but that's the way it will be.

[Dog Gone]

You'll be there with us. The left, with the able assistance of the media, is launching their final assault.

It won't work.

[MadIvan]

Not the paper that is the problem. You got the poll from Populous, which is a little known outfit.

Regards, Ivan

Blair has a serious problem but we have to do what we need to do. The longer it goes without resolution the worse our economy will get and the more danger for our troops.

If we have to, I guess we'll have to do it without the Brits. It's a sorry situation we are in.

But I do think that Blair has given it his best. It's too bad that a large majority of the British public think very little of our long-standing relationship.

This is a See-BS report after all..

[Russell Scott]

The liberal media trying to stop what they can't stop. A God fearing Christian leader named President George W. Bush.

[cmsgop]

I'm suddenly feeling quite nauseous.

Why ?

[shrinkermd]

Rummy looks thinner, older and tireder. He seems to have aged 10 years in the last week.

[swheats]

Do we really expect outlets such as CBS or any liberal rag to give any info that is supporting Bush or our allies? I believe as we get closer those who have been against this war from the start will become even more desperate.

Until I hear it From Bush or Blair or any of our allies, the last communication from them (the horses mouth) still stands.

[dinok]

I miss Maggie Thatcher...she was more man where it counted than most of our current leaders.

Blair still losing support over Iraq By Peter Riddell and Philip Webster

This loss of support is Blair's own fault. He delayed things and every delay cost him dearly and strengthened the pro-Nazi forces. If we had gone in in early January, we would be done by now, thousands of tortured souls would have been released, and dreadful other secrets revealed. Blair would be a hero anew, and his enemies disgraced. Instead he has been weak in insisting on the corrupt U.N.'s imprimateur. You can't be both Chamberlain AND Churchill. Such an approach is doomed to failure.

[TLBSHOW]

I wondered because I saw you just posted from the Times!

[TLBSHOW]

Thanks.

[GalaxieFiveHundred]

Hmm, prophecy on the part of The Clash?

"Forget it brother, you can go it alone"

[OldFriend]

I remember Maggie Thatcher going to war in the Falklands. They didn't go to the UN, they took care of business.

President Bush is going to take care of business! Protecting the security of the United States.

[Neets]

See your opthamologist...he can help you.

[Dead Dog]

Unlike the Frenc we don't leave Allies twisting in the wind..

I wish that were the case.
