I never thought there was a real dispute. This is the most leak free Administration in the post-War period, and suddenly there are all these leaks about internal squabbles? Pure good cop, bad cop. Can the diplomat get the cowboy to observe "process"? I never doubted that Bush would seek UN and congressional approval, and his willingness to engage in unilateral action practically ensured that he would get a hard line to mollify him.......

Reportedly, the President has no regrets about that: (7) According to that senior administration official, the power that be at the White House does not regret going to the United Nations and creating an army of weapons inspectors in Iraq. Why would folks at the White House think so? Well, punching the U.N. ticket facilitates the signing up of allies in the effort to supplant Saddam--that is, allies willing to join the United States in a war against Iraq. weeklystandard.com
