Questions and Answers are cited below as

"Q" and "A"

1. Q: To what am I referring in the foregoing citation?

A: To the fact that President Bush may have stumbled once again, into a war that had no sound reason for occurring.

2. Q: What was the first instance of President Bush's massive stumbling?

A: Projecting the United States and its allies into a war in Iraq which had no reason for existing.

3. Q: Why not?

A: Because he was purporting by that war to punish the criminal terrorists who had plunged us into the Twin Tower, Pentagon, etc. tragedies, with which Saddam Hussein of Iraq had no connection. But Osama Bin Laden of Saudi Arabia did.

4. Q: What is the present re-instance of massive stumbling by the President?

A: It is the President's pressuring Iraqi to accept a form of constitutional government by a given date insisted upon by our President, - whereas the terms being accepted and the final date for acceptance were purported to be, and had in fact to be, - constitutional democratic government, - explicitly a decision of the Iraqi people.

5. Q: What is the overall effect?

A: That the President of the United States' overuse of force and under use of the processes of evolving self-government is at the risk both of the United States, its allies and world peace.
