>>>Saddam was no proven threat to us last year, just a potential threat.<<<

He ACTED as if he were a threat. To ignore that fact would have been very negligent and foolish.

>>>He needed to be inspected with a real threat of force, that's all.<<<

The threat of force was there. He still did not comply.

>>>Taking him out would be fine if we'd had a wider coalition, the UN and a post-war plan.<<<

Chirac stopped that process.

>>>not to mention proof of his WMD's<<<

The resolution did not call for proof of WMD. It called for Saddam provide proof that had destroyed his WMD which he had.

>>>Bush made a huge mistake.<<<

Ridiculous.
