We have to play this political game for many years to come and the slap in the face to the system is not going to help the U.S. in the future.
By the way, if the new polls can be taken at face value a majority of U.S. citizens would have still supported the war with a no vote from the U.N. on the new resolution.
Regardless of where you stand on this war this is one dance that should have gone on.

What do you mean it's not the point? The U.N., which was created by the U.S., is there to enforce international laws, is it not? France is obviously going to VETO anything regarding IRAQ so why sit there and waste MORE time?
