Mr Powell changed position based on no new information. On Meet The Press has was shown his taped speeches and said that the "analysis" was no different. The CIA director, however, testified to congress that nothing new had been learned about Mr. Hussein for years. Had Mr. Powell changed his position due to new information, fine, but all he said was that the analysis had changed. We now know that basically means the President wanted war. To be clear - changing positions is fine, you just need to show people why and, if it makes sense (by passing a global test), no problem. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:134071 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
