Bush never said he would not do a 2 stage approach.

Wrong. According to your own link:

Nov 02 - John Negroponte, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., makes it clear that the Iraqi dictator's failure to comply with the inspections will justify the use of military force to disarm him.

Jan 03 - Bush states: "This thing needs to be resolved quickly. Should the United Nations decide to pass a second resolution, it would be welcomed. ... But 1441 gives us the authority to move without any second resolution."

Mar 03 - Chirac says "My position tonight in any of these circumstances is that France will vote 'no,' because it considers that there is no place for war to achieve our objective, namely the disarming of Iraq."

Thanks for the link.
