Re: The Debate tonight, Going to watch?
I got to hear about the first 20 minutes (then we were called to the Nursing Home that is attached to the hospital for a working fires! YIKES! Looked like a county fire convention. Place was filled with smoke - from a bed - the motor burnt up! Scarey for a bit). Anyway, I was wondering why GW didn't respond differently, especially with the reports that the French and Germans would not come to the table even under another president, and the report said that WMD were not evident because sanctions had been working, but the sanctions were breaking down because the French and Germans were not honoring them.<br /><br />Suddenly I understood - GW is working with the French and Germans, and others, in Iran. If he came out and blasted them to make himself look better for the elections, it would help him win the elections, but would not be in the best interests of the nation. So, he is willing to take the heat for the good of the country and to be able to continue to work with some "hostile" allies.<br /><br />I could be wrong in my assessment, but that was what it seemed like to me.
