Gee wiz, I don't know, I'm not sure that one country
store in Connecticut is a valid statistical
sample of the honest discussion of this matter that is
has been taking place in those parts of the world
where we value free speach. I've got a house in Wilton
Connecticut and next time I go up therre I'll have to
see what the folks in the country store and pizza shop
are saying, but I'm sure they haven't hung anyone from
a football goal or cut any tounge out. 

The UN resolutions and the inspection reports are
published. You can read them on the interent. Of
course the UN says nothing at all about a "smoking
gun." It does, however, provide the evidence. Now,
what is to be done? Should the UN do nothing?
Certainly, most of the world and the UN agrees with
the President of the USA, doing nothing is not an
option. But there are other option to war. The USA,
other Nations, have worked on various alternatives to
the war option. However, time is running out. Now,
about Bush. Thus far his policies are failing.
Although I think it is very difficult to determine
when and if the  war on "terrorism" is being won or
lost, I think, despite some sucesses, the war "on
terrorism" is being lost. Although not easily
seperated from the broader political/military
developments and hostilities where terror weapons,
tactics, strategies, and  so on, are the norm, it
seems to me that the casualties (human,
tangible--land, economy, capital, intangible--i.e.,
rights of US citizens and residents) of prosecuting
this war on terrorism have been much too high. Again,
what about Bush policy? I'm more interested in Bush
policy in the USA, and America. Here and in America
Bush policy is failing just about everything. I'll say
this much for the Bush administration, they will never
be mistaken for pretending to be stick your head in
the sand liberals with flowers in their hair, like
Germany.  I think the Bush administration and the UN
have got it right on proliferation and WMD. If any
nation works out an exile or a regime change short of
war, the Bush administration, its supporters in the
caolition,  and the UN will get and should get most of
the credit.
