jude (and her father) we have a transcript of Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV)'s speech before the Senate from three days ago. "The doctrine of preemption -- the idea that the United States or any other nation can legitimately attack a nation that is not imminently threatening but may be threatening in the future -- is a radical new twist on the traditional idea of self defense."
My thoughts on War in Iraq are still a bit nebulous, but I can't really see it as being, in the long run, a Good Thing. So Hussein is an evil dictator-- so are tons of other foreign despots. No reason to launch Uhmerikun imperialism.
Must go; type later.
Maybe it'll be a rotten February after all.
