I can't help but wonder.. because with all the thousands of troops that have already been sent overseas, do you think they made their decision already?

In reverse order, yes, I think the President has made a decision. I think it's been made for a long time. Now, we're going through the pre-game posturing.
Protests made a significant difference in the Vietnam era -- but it took 10 years (and 50,000 casualities).
I wonder, too. I wonder where the proof of the Wepons of Mass Destruction is.
