In re: to "the child" metaphore I see your point but keep in mind there wasn't a draft for this war it was all volunteer. It's not like anyone was forced to be in the us military.
this is true there is no draft and our military is 100% volunteer. Maybe what I should have said is: How would you feel if your president told the world "this country was trying to make a nuke and was an immediate danger to us" and you lost a child or loved one taking them down only to find out that both of those statements were wrong?

I think that bush should have taken a little more time. Saddam had done nothing in 10 years, what harm could 6 more months do?
