Ummmm John -- my list was an attempt at humor. I believe Doug is asking
you for a serious attempt at quantifying the contributions of the
coalition.

I know, Jim, but your list is as meaningful as any list. No matter how
much, it would not be enough to satisfy your "requirements" for a
coalition as opposed to a "unilateral action."

I could be wrong, but isn't the list Bush's, not Jim's? Or, does the fact
that Jim posted it make it "his", and no longer Bush's? Last week, most news
sources were using up air time on the fact that it was the anniversary of
the war's beginning. I was busy doing other things while NPR broadcast a
woman's voice reading "the list", so I don't recall who it was, but behind
the voice, there was the sound of cameras snapping pictures. Condoleeza
Rice, perhaps?
