targa dude, you crack me up. the most conservative members of the supreme court would never read that stautory section as applying to anything said here.

racea911, i don't think liberals or conservatives in the US would give you much argument about the WMD issue. the fact remains that iraq is in material breach of a number of UN resolutions; even liberals understand that (and so do the french). isn't the question really whether it's in our best national interest for the US to take preventive (not preemptive) military action w/o UN approval? forget the peripheries, many to the right and left of center find it hard to say yes.

believe it or not, there are well known conservatives who question current US policy (brent scowcroft for one stressed the importance of obtaining multilateral support before taking action). even the US state department has serious questions regarding bush's goals to use the war to foster democracy in the middle east.
