Bush's hands are not tied. He is free to invade. Congress has back him with a resolution, and we are going in. The support from Congress is only as transitory as the support from the American public. And right now, there is good support from Americans only if our invasion, occupation, and reconstruction of Iraq is approached from a multilateral direction. Once a unilateral invasion of Iraq has begun and if the post-war scenario does not play out according to the romanticized script of peace, modernity, and democracy or if there is another significant attack in our homeland during the war, I suspect Bush2.0 will become a lame duck president for the remainder of his short tenure as commander-in-chief. Is the invasion of Iraq a political gamble for the president? You better believe it and painting himself into a corner on the merit of neocon ideology will an interesting story to follow. Get over it. Get over what?
