I see you have refused to answer my question regarding Milosivic and Clinton. Was it because the question caused you some discomfort to answer?

More likely scenario: Sadam will be toppled after we engage him militarily, and the decent people of Iraq will dance in the streets as our forces march into Baghdad. Another ruthless mad dictator will be removed from power.

He isn't superman, nor is he particularly cagey. He's evil, ruthless and not very bright. If he were intelligent, he would have led Iraq toward a prosperous path of enlightenment, instead of one laden with poverty and war. Iraq was one of the most prosperous nations in the Middle East before his rein of terror began.

As President Bush leads us through this seemingly endless quagmire in the middle east, radical Islamic elements will be on the run and Iran will move toward moderate leadership. As we act and show courage, a domino effect will begin to take shape in an area of the world rife with conflict for decades.

If Sadam had WMD now I believe he would have used them in a clandestine way via surrogate terrorist groups. Will he be less of a threat in a few years after he develops WMD? Will removing him from power be easier after he sets off a bomb in downtown N.Y. or Jerusalem? Your path is one rife with fear and apeasement. A path almost certain to embolden this madman and pass the threat he poses onto our children. He should be dealt with now, while we have the national will and a leader willing to lay out the case in an unambiguious way.

If we lead, others will follow.
