What you will not factor into the equation, T, is that everything that Bush or his folks said from 9/11 until the invasion was wrapped in 9/11 and flag waving...

Yes, there was a ceratibn amount of international sympathey that Bush spent like a drunkin' sailor... There wasn't one danged legilative proposal that didn't get the 9/ll brand burned into it's side, not one appointment that wasn't tied to fighting the terroristist who had attacked US on 9/11...

You seem to have a myopic view of the way things were in the mad-dash to invase Iraq...

Like maybe you'd like to explain how upwards of 80% of Americans can to think that Iraq (or Saddam) had something to do with the 9/11 attacks???

No, it is not longer sufficient for you to take the "actual" words and put them uner the T-Microsope... This is way beyond microscope stuff T-Stubborn.... Do you understand anything about PR and advertising??? If not, then this explains a lot as to why you continue to try to make that pair ot two's into a straight flush...

This ain't got one danged thing to do with UN resolutions... It's all about salesmanship and howe Bush sold an invasion to the American people... Yeah, you can camp out behing UN resolutions until the cows come home but when the day is done, your arguments are so contrary to what just about nay thinking person in the worlds are, that you look very much the fool...
