You need to take reading lessons LOL!No, you are what I call an "Accidental Democrat." It would be funny except your kind will bring the b*tch from hell to the oval office one of these days.

I think you give Powell way too much credit. He has been great the last few weeks (after getting sandbagged at the UN), but before that he was always subtly undercutting Bush's position on the political talk shows. He is a diplomat, pure and simple, and to Bush's discredit, was the architect of the "go thru the UN plan." That has severely backfired on Bush and day by day it takes its toll on the level of support for the war.
On Korea, I will only say that every time I hear Powell's explanation on the situation it makes me cringe knowing how the liberals are having a field day with it.
Please excuse my rather late response.

Too many of them, though, just sit around lobbing insults all day at anyone criticizing Bush for any reason. It's all your fault.
To: BJR
I see several positive benefits that have occured because of the patience Bush has shown in this conflict.
We have proven the U.N. to be a farce, We now have a major can of woop ass in place around Iraq that is about to set one major example of why you don't mess with the U.S.A.
Nations that are not with us have been exposed for who they are.
What happens in Iraq will be on every nations mind especially those who have not been with us.
There will be peace but it is the example we are about to set that is going to go the farthest in achieving a more permanent peace.

Now, care to discuss this reasonably or does your initial 'shut the hell up' still make your whole case?Sure, as soon as you point out where I said "Shut the hell up".

I understand the point you are trying to make. It is that this rhetoric is counterproductive. There may be reasons for it, but we don't know what they are. I wonder if the command was waiting for some signal within Iraq - a coup or assassination - late last year. To my reading, there were some signs that they were expecting something.
But the talk goes on. It is funny that so many posters are telling you "patience". Wasn't it Bush himself who announced, at the start of the year, that his patience had run out? (An unfortunate statement because it recalled Hitler's famous comment "my patience is exhausted" before he launched WW2.)
There may be tactical advantages in waiting, esp. as the disarmament process goes on, weakening Iraqi defenses. Set against this, the heat is building up in the Middle East. I am of the faction who think that even with all our technology, the weather is still a factor. Next month, the dust storms start in properly. That helicopter crash in Kuwait, last week, that was caused by dust storms.

Bump for #37, as it seems even more relevant with all of the media machinations that are going on today...
