Bush to Hussein: "That Middle Eastern country ain't big enough for the both of us"

The ultimatum has been issued. Hussein has 48 hours to gather up his sons and his stuff and leave Iraq, the country of their birth, to go...where? Who cares? If he doesn't get out of town by sundown (tomorrow), the might U.S. Military is gonna come out guns a'blazin'.

God bless all those involved.

I really hope that this war, this sequel to "Desert Storm", is as short as the first Persian Gulf conflict. But there's a problem: in that first "episode", the objective was to simply oust Iraqi forces from lil' defenseless Kuwait. Now we're taking them on in their home country. What is our objective? Is it to remove Hussein from power? Is it to destroy or confiscate their Weapons of Mass Destruction? The President has talked about "liberating the citizens of Iraq". So does that mean our objective is to change the entire political structure in that country? How will we know if we've won or lost?

What do you think?
