Jack, you obviously belong in the same camp as Daschle, Byrd and Pelosi. just come out and say it. did Iraq fire scud missiles that the sorry french agreed that they didn't have? are they burning oil fields that they said they wouldn't burn? only THREE countries in the EU are not backing the coalition. THREE. germany, france and belgium. i think we know why. and would you put your faith behind those three EU countries in the matter of international affairs and war? i would hope not. the lowly, pathetic french have been attempting to undermine this for months, all the while selling Mirage fighter plane parts to the iraqis. as far as i'm concerned, the frence are no friends of ours. look at where these countries have/have not historically stood on positions. not a pretty picture.
oh, and at this point, we have all of the help we need. when the hat is passed at the church, do you expect everyone to chip in the same amount? i would think not. everyone does what they can, in good faith. same can be said with participation.
i'll let dennis miller say the rest:
This is from Dennis Miller.
