Contradiction? I'm a LIB but it doesn't matter in this case-find the average of Hegel, Powell, Myers, and Biden's stance on when, how, or if we should attack Iraq and I'll gladly go with it. I happen to not trust Rumsfeld and Cheney with unlimited influence (Israel's a big reason). If it goes down, it needs to be overwhelming and we must "stay the course" (a longterm presence).
