re: Colin Powell, the US Secretary of State, revealed for the first time yesterday that he would not have supported military action against Baghdad if he had known that Iraq lacked weapons of mass destruction. and your comment: "Powell's comment is interesting......do you think he's trying to distance himself from Bush?" I don't think Bush has answered the same question, "would you have gone to war with no Iraq wmd's?". Of course Bush doesn't "debate with himself" (some would call that the thought process). So Bush may well agree with Powell Even as the neocons on this thread (and elsewhere) have invented 100 reasons why the war was justified, the only selling point by Bush to the US citizens was a direct threat. Bush is an expert at not answering questions. I wonder if he'll be able to maintain that through the election. John, adding to your wonderment, I wonder if Powell will make it til the end of the year? <g> ted
