What REALLY troubles me folks is that a number of pretty prominent Leaders and their henchmen are absolutely going against what we know would be their positions, if they WEREN'T getting a lot of pressure. We see it every day here in Canada. Jean Chretien (who Mr. Bush thinks is named Jean Crouton!) is squirming like a worm on a hook, and it looks verrrry bad. But what can he do? The Yanks have already demonstated a fair amount of muscle as far as tourists crossing the border (without hassle)

Look......I guess my point (and I'm willing to be convinced otherwise) is that Colin is ALSO up to his neck in pressure, but feels that he has to go along. He's a SOLDIER for goodness sake, so you'd think he'd send in the troops as a LAST resort.

Cheers
