The President did a fine job in the speech last night. He laid out his message in clear terms without any spin.
We as a nation have been attacked and thousands of our fellow Americans and hundreds of our friends have been murdered.
The President said that the object was to track down international terrorists and root them and those who support them out.
Saddam runs a terrorist super market providing funds, training, and lots of nasty stuff to international terrorists while at the same time running a 'government' based on terror, murder, rape, and atrocity.
OK, my Commander in Chief has given that son of a bitch 48 hours to get the hell out of Dodge or face off in the street.
Fine by me, now excuse me while I inspect my command once more and make sure we are ready to slap leather when the order comes down. Judging by my troopers mood right now, if I were Saddam I really would not want to do anything other than get out of Dodge, pronto. And, OBTW, we are targeting the leadership and those who want to fight. We are carefully prepared to bypass and not engage those who do not want to fight. It presents a bit more danger to us, but unlike our adversaries, we do try to fight clean.
