I have a sense of humor? Where did THAT come from? :-) Know something? In a lot of ways I wish Bush had nevewr learned the word "Iraq". That he had just stuck to cleaning out Afghanistan, building it back up (which isn't being done) and doing what has to be done to get OBL. But, like it or not, we're into this now. If the US backs down, it will be the greatest victory Saddam and OBL ever got to this point. And the word of the US will be worthless. Next time we get in a bind we will HAVE to go to war just to prove we will. Precisely the situation Britain and France ended up in with respect to Germany after WW1. They finally signed a defense pact with Poland in 1939 - and then had to declare war because Hitler didn't believe they would.
