OT- Just listened to General Schwartkopf (sp.?), on the news. Among his points: We shouldn't go to war, in Iraq, unless we have a broad international coalition supporting our goal (including the UN), and broad domestic support (including the Democrats). He said they didn't do a "regime change" in 1991, because there was no mandate to do that. It's looking to me like Bush's Iraq war, might end up like Clinton's health care plans: an issue on which the President stakes his reputation, and then is unable to get enough support to carry out his plan. The Europeans, the Arabs, the Democrats, the Secretary of State, I don't see anyone rallying to the flag the President is waving (except the Brits and Israelis).
