Thanks LB. And Thanks to Kenneth Pollack. If the Dems would stop the incessant, childish "are we there yet, have we found them yet"....(two months of looking, not the 14 years of UN demands to Iraq....) and instead, focus on where the Iraqi weapons program actually is, and in whose hands, we would all be better off.

If as Mr. Pollack states, anyone involved with this problem for the last many years knows that the question was, not IF, but WHEN would the war start....One has to ask themselves...that being the case...WHY WAIT? For what? For any of the countries planning to harm the US and its allies to hit first? Again? WHY would any American think that would be the policy we should undergo?

As it is now, the Dems as a group come across as whiners, instead of a Party that does have some legitimate contributions to make for the greater good of the US.

As important as this debate is, what may ultimately turn out to be the biggest concern over the Iraqi weapons program is the question of whose hands it is now in. If we do confirm that those two trailers are mobile biological warfare labs, we are faced with a tremendous problem. If the defectors' reports about the rates at which such mobile labs were supposedly constructed are correct, there are probably 22 more trailers still out there. Where are they? Syria? Iran? Jordan? Still somewhere in Iraq? Or have they found their way into the hands of those most covetous ? Osama bin Laden and his confederates?

As The House of Commons told Blair last week, "If you wouldn't give the UN more time to find weapons, why should we give you more time to find weapons?" A question that is threatening Blair's place in history, and a question we might ask the Bushies as well.
