Thanks, Don, fir the assist.

But really, Deckman and others, the US has painted itself into a corner with this pre-emptive doctrine in terms of having cooperative partners. I Bush's haste to war, he all but drove a stake thru the hear of the United Nations, he angered and humiliated our allies and he shreaded our credibility in the world's eye. I don't think it is possible for this administration to mend the damage. It is my hopes, however, that the next administartion will abandon this doctrine and worlk their butts off trying to restore some stability to the world community. If not, that corner is going to get smaller and smaller...
