Your back! And up to your old tricks of trying to start a "question" seminar.

Nice runaround, LB.

Now kindly answer the question. It was:

Do you think that alienating our traditional allies and putting the leaders of our few remaining friends on the political hotseat is the best way to accomplish a new global security apparatus?

And in turn, I'll answer yours:

So, do you think that letting our traditional allies continue to believe they can run our Foreign Policy by opposing us at the UN, instead of making them see these old ways won't work any more, is the best way to handle them?

Run our Foreign Policy by opposing us at the UN?

Run our Foreign Policy by opposing us at the UN?!?

Bill, listen to yourself...

LB,

I've been here all along, reading every post.

Tried to cut the clutter by not posting unless it was worthwhile.

Thought that three of the more prominent bloggers returning back to Dovedom after a brief turn in the Hawk camp was worthy of a post, since all three's conclusion was that the price of invasion had become too high:
The list of "liberal hawks" throwing in the towel grows: first Josh, then Kevin, then Sean-Paul.

My own feeling is, since we obviously have Special Forces inserted, to let them run amok, undo Saddam and then stage a wild and joyous victory parade through Baghdad. Allow the glad tidings to linger for months.

Then GWB is a hit, he listens to the world's opinion after all, and cruises into 2004 waaay on top.

Don't think for a second that Rove hasn't thought about it.
