Not to mention the fact that Saddam and his Baathist paramilitary group, place civilians in positions where they knew the U.S. was going to bomb, so as to stack the stats and make us look bad. So later on, if Saddam is alive he can say "Look! The U.S. kills civilians *aside to one of his advisors* pretty smart putting them there with armed guards to make sure they don't leave and survive." Bush isn't being totalitarian, we've had worse people than Ashcroft and Bush out there (McCarthy, HUAC, a whole nation paranoid of red haired people who might be communists) and we've made it through before. I didn't agree with Bush moving so fast, I thought that was a mistake, we probably should have waited until late September for better weather conditions, and more than likely, more international support. I want peace, but I don't want it at any cost, I'd like to have a backup plan incase some insane person decides to attack us again so that the options that are brought before the POTUS aren't just negotiations.
