Well, obviously, we have to wait for the report, which is not a final report. Blix and El Baradei are delivering an update report on the 27th. Preliminary press reports indicate Iraq's scoring somewhere around a B, which is, has has been stated, better than a gentleman's C.

Bottom line here is this: Where's the beef!?!

Excerpts:

>>> DAVOS, Switzerland -- The European Union will support giving U.N. weapons inspectors more time to do their work in Iraq if they ask for it, a top EU official said Saturday.

Just how long would depend on what is contained in a progress report to be presented to the U.N. Security Council on Monday, said Greek Foreign Minister George Papandreou, whose country holds the presidency of the 15-nation bloc.

Papandreou said there was a "quite wide" consensus among the 15 EU countries "that if there is to be military action, it would require a second resolution." However, he conceded the consensus was "not full."<<<

Indeed, what we'll be getting on the 27th is a progress report.
