you don't speak for liberals and this was one liberal who expected Hussein to be taken out. He attacked a neighboring country with the intent of snagging their oil......why would I argue with his disposable? I think the history is clear on this issue.

Ted the case fire agreement in effect gave Saddam a second chance to behave and gave the US a chance to avoid dealing with the potential mess of a post Saddam Iraq. If Saddam had followed the case fire agreement it would have been better for everyone involved. But once he started to think the US would not respond with major force to violations he basically ignored the agreement. An attack now would be taking back that second chance. It would be as much a delayed response to the invasion of Kuwait as it would be a response to kicking out the inspectors. Tim
