Bush: Protests Won't Sway U.S.
President says nations trying to extend inspections want to give Saddam Hussein 'another, another, another last chance'

The left has been talking all about the horrors of war, so delay, delay, delay. What about the horrors of peace?

A really nasty idea for a commercial:

Arianna Huffington and others have been taking their shots at Bush and asking why we're so worked up about Iraq. And America's college students, ever the sheep of those offering a spot on the non-conformist bandwagon, have been bleating away. It's time for a little consciousness raising. So, here's the set-up:

Iraqi exile tearfully recounts fleeing Iraq when it got to be too much, talks about the pain of leaving family behind.

He then talks about extended family, say his favorite little niece, who must be all grown up by now.

He then says, "But this is the last picture I have of her..."

Cut to one of the rape videos (censored of course) sent to exiles in Kuwait.

Screen goes black. White block letters appear:


X fled Iraq in 1990.

He is one of the many exiles who got videotapes like this.

Videotapes that showed family members

being gang-raped.

Saddam's message was clear: Your family will pay the price for your freedom.


Screen goes black. White block letters appear:


President Bush wasn't kidding when he said


EVIL
