Oh please Henry A. Waxman My gawd you have to pick up some heavy rocks to find that piece of work.... Statement Regarding the Possible War with Iraq Oct. 10, 2002 By Henry A. Waxman Although I disagree deeply with much of President Bush’s domestic policies and some aspects of his foreign policy, I agree with his conclusion that we cannot leave Saddam to continue on his present course. No one doubts that he is trying to build a nuclear device, and when he does, his potential for blackmail to dominate the Persian Gulf and Middle East will be enormous, and our efforts to deal with him be even more difficult and perilous. The risks of inaction clearly outweigh the risks of action. Despite my misgivings about the President’s approach, I believe it’s essential that Congress send the strongest bipartisan signal of unity possible so the UN will act. Some have even suggested that taking the threat of force out of the equation might undermine that result. In a post September 11 world, it is important we speak with one voice and send one message - particularly when the lives of our men and women in the armed forces are at stake. And it is important that we not send a confused signal to Iraq, so that there be no doubt about our resolve. Mr. Chairman, the goal I want is decisive UN action and the effective disarmament of Iraq. The substitute achieves that goal and should be approved. But if it is defeated, I believe supporting the President’s proposal brings us closer to realizing that goal than defeating the Resolution. For that reason, Mr. Chairman, I will support the President’s resolution if it is before us. henrywaxman.house.gov
