I think the "calculus" is when do you want to go war with Iraq and how well armed will they be when you have to go to war. Right now a whole bunch of folks seem to want as much intel as the deal on the table will provide for when the decision has to be made. That and they would like to keep the war non-nuclear.

That and trying to buy time for an internal regime change, but I don't think there is enough time in the math for that.

They are out of touch, unlike Harvard Grads.
