A Blast from the Past

From 2003 a little reminder of things that seem soooooo long ago.

BBC NEWS | Americas | Stormin' Norman: Don't rush into war:

"US President George Bush, speaking in his annual State of the Union address late on Tuesday, said he would present fresh evidence to the UN next week about Iraq's weapons programme.

General Schwarzkopf praised his former comrade-in-arms, US Secretary of State Colin Powell, but said he was 'somewhat nervous' about comments made by the Defence Secretary, Donald Rumsfeld.

'When he makes his comments, it appears that he disregards the Army,' he was quoted as saying.

'He gives the perception when he's on TV that he is the guy driving the train and everybody else better fall in line behind him - or else.'"
