I read the article as well. I had mixed feeling about it. It seems to me that 
the UN is agreeing with Bush, but I don't feel like Bush is "getting away" with 
anything. Maybe war is what is coming in the future, but I think that there are 
reasons and support for a war. But also I think Bush and the UN are taking many 
extra precautions and really trying to avoid going to war. In some ways I think 
that we won't go to war, like someone said in the debate during class, maybe 
all this talk of war is just a bluff. I mean, a very serious threat is the only 
way to get Hussain to take this matter seriously. I think that we are dealing 
with a very serious threat here because I think Bush has a lot more information 
then I/we do. (At least I hope so.) Also I don't think that this is "some kind 
of post election gloating from the Republicans", they won because the majority 
of the people supported them and that really doesn't have anything to so with 
it. I am not saying I am absolutly pro-war, but I do trust the president and I 
think he is really trying to avoid a war with Iraq. President Bush is at least 
dealing with the issue of the threat of Iraq, he is not concerned just with his 
own re-election (like most politicians).
