#1 News says Saddam will say no to disarming missiles tonight in an exclusive interview with CBS evening news. Then he will ask for a 1-on-1 debate with George Bush.

As to Nato/froggies - toss em overboard. The prof linked to an interesting site. It seems, while Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia don't have the financial power, they do have 56 votes in the euro parliament, conveniently, the same amount as frankenreich.
