#2 Form is apparently far more important than actually accomplishing anything.

#3 So what if he quits. Its a small loss considering the number of Americans who are out of work because of the sluggish economy -- sluggish in part because he isn't doing his job aggressively.

#4 Hmmmmmm, he'll quit if we go in without UN approval. So what does he do if we go in with UN approval? Dope. Blix and ElBaradei will do anything to preserve their precious inspections bureaucracy.

#5 Don't go away mad, just go away.

I do have a little sympathy for the standing UN officials caught in the gears of major power politics.

So much for the dream of being the world's honest broker.

#6 This ElBaradei guy is most certainly a Muslim.
Could he possibly be a "fundo,"too? Why not.
His presence in this important job has always made me nervous given his Islamist "sympathies" which is also why I'm assuming that he'll quit in the event we launch our war "against Islam"/Saddam.
Good riddance,too.
Time to get a non-Allah, but God-fearing Christian, Jew or even atheist Westerner to take his place!

#7 In light of the Eqyptian Nuclear connection(see above)Don't let the door hit you in the ass.
