And yet, there are complaints that, on 9/11, Bush sat there, waiting for more information rather than jumping up and doing something. It seems to me that he is damned if he does anything, and damned if he does not. PERHAPS he acted in haste on Iraq- How many months? BUT looking at what was thought true, I still feel he would have been derilect in his duty to the nation if he had not attacked Iraq, after the UN refused to take effective action. Saddam HAD more than enough chances- To allow him further time did not in any way resolve the problem.

I am still upset that, even after the US declares the situation in Sudan to be genocide, there is NO effective action by the UN. Yet, how can we complain if the US does not act unilateraly, now? I also note that the sudan threads drop off the bottom here, or are hijacked to Iraq, but that the multiple threads insulting both candidates are always active. Seems to me that there is a very selective choice of protests against inhumanity, here.
