The first UN resolution, the resolution by congress, they were not mistakes. The US resolution wasn't a mistake... electing Bush was a mistake.

That's when he lost the support of the UN and most of the rest of the world. Bush failed to get a second UN resolution for a reason. Bush properly refused to cede our sovereignty to the UN "and the rest of the world". We had just come through eight years of Clinton cow-towing to the rest of the world, and the result was 9/11. On 9/11 everything changed. We had to begin looking out for our own interests and let the rest of the world just deal with it. It was a great day in America. Of course, the Left is very quick to forget what happened on 9/11 -- just as I predicted you would all be. On this very thread I pointed out that the biggest challenge for Bush would be the short memories of the Western Liberal, and that turned out to be precisely correct.
