Bill,
From what you glean from the UN today, what do you see happening over the next two weeks. Give us your timeline for action/inaction. By the way the stock market is now a forecaster for war. When blix spoke it went up--no war. Then it lost its gain as it becomes clearer that US will act. Is that the way you see it. mike

Oh sure. And rape victims "goad people to it" because they wear high heels and tight skirts.

Of course there is the temptation to attack people you do not agree with (whose arguments you don't even understand, possibly), but that does not excuse the petty personal attack thrown into what is generally a medium to exchange ideas and opinions on foreign policy.

That is the way I think about it, anyway.

You seem to agree with the rapist because you see the heels and are probably tempted yourself.
