Blair stacked his leadership over the WMD issue… and he should now do the honourable thing left to him and resign.
WMD pressure builds up for Blair
Opposition MPs have called for a public inquiry
The prime minister is facing growing pressure to say the basis for going to war in Iraq was flawed.
Ex- minister Robin Cook said Tony Blair should use the Hutton report to set the record straight on the issue.
The Tories and Liberal Democrats want a public inquiry into the case for war.
Mr Blair insists weapons of mass destruction will be found although the official leading the US search resigned saying they did not exist.
They were keen to get in to impress President Bush that they were a reliable ally
Powell casts doubt on Iraq WMDs
Former foreign secretary Mr Cook told the BBC Mr Blair had been driven to war by "missionary zeal" and the desire to show loyalty to US President George W Bush.

Oh and….
Powell casts doubt on Iraq WMDs
Powell said it was an open question whether WMDs existed in Iraq
US Secretary of State Colin Powell has conceded that Iraq may not have possessed any stocks of weapons of mass destruction before the war last year.
His comments came after the former head of the US weapons inspection team, David Kay, said he did not believe there were any weapons stockpiles.
Mr Powell was speaking on his way to the former Soviet republic of Georgia.
Less than a year ago, Mr Powell warned the United Nations Security Council about the danger from Iraq\'s weapons.
In the run-up to the US-led war against Iraq, he gave a presentation to the Security Council in which he asserted that Saddam Hussein had amassed secret weapons of mass destruction.
He said then that he …

If I was British, I\'d be singing "Hey, Hey....GOODBYE", but I\'m American, so I have to wait and see if I\'ll get to sing it come election time.

They did a poll and it was that if Kerry and Bush were to go at it now for Presidency, Kerry would win...BIG.

But I liked Clark better.

It may take years to find the WMD or the WMD plans.
There exists a lot of possibilities that the US hasn\'t explored.
Me, I\'m not going to hold my breath. :)

Polls are pretty much meaningless at the moment since, anything can happen between now and November (good or bad for Bush, Kerry, or any Democrat that might win the primary). Not to mention, the recent Newsweek poll that shows Kerry winning...from what I understand, that is polling adults. NOT registered voter who CAN vote, or better yet, likely voters who WILL vote. Very inaccurate way of polling.
Also, don\'t think that Kerry will be the nomination. A certain two term President who came from Arkansas lost both Iowa and New Hampshire.
As for Blair...well, he just got vindicated. So...:laughing:
