Debate is never a waste of time as you should know.   Does it stand a
chance of getting a majority?  Who knows?  The U-S is certainly not the
most popular country in diplomatic circles these days.  I am glad to hear

the 4:30am CNN scrawl...always remember when covering any story, there is
always more than one side.
