Does that mean that Saddam wasn't getting uranium from other sources? Does this one "oops" negate the fundamental reasons why we had to shut Hussein down? Humans make mistakes. Bush may have been a little overzealous, due to the urgency for action. If you knew what he knew, you might be tempted to grease the wheels a little too. Slowly, you are seeing the light. Presidents are allowed to make some mistakes, but overzealousness in going to war is not one of them. A prudent, competent, President would make sure. I'd also like to point out that if the underlying reasons weren't there, there is *no* urgency. *ONE* of the reasons was evidently not there. But all of the rest of them still were. There was still the issue of chemical and biological weapons (Yea I know, until you see them you won't believe it), the brutality of Saddam, and the stability of the middle east, and the elimination of havens for terrorists. Dave Brutality of Saddam: We are hypocrites in that regard. There are equally brutal regimes in Africa, and your president lets the citizens of those countries dangle in the wind. Stability of the Middle East: Get real. You do not believe for a moment that we contribute to stability. As early as a year ago, numerous Middle Eastern writers were saying that to attack Saddam would strike a blow AGAINST stability.
