Ask a simple question....and I need a simple answer......
IWR means??????? As it relates to this context:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=2235595#2239810
Post #9, Paragraph 2:
HAve you even read the IWR?

-----------
I google/altavista/dogpile it up and I get:

Institute for Water Research

Information for World Review

Internationales Wirtschaftsforum Regenerative Energien (too bad I don't read/speak German)

25,000++ etc., etc.

Did I 'miss something' WHAT is it? (or is it 'nothing', that's why there's not a decent response?)

4. In other words... not the war itself
Edited on Thu Aug-19-04 10:42 PM by onebigbadwulf
Not the war itself (because the president did that) but the authority for the president to go to war.


Basically congress handed the president a free pass and he went to town with it.


Kerry said he'd still vote for the IRW because the president should have that kind of bargaining power, but should not have invaded the country as he did.

10. Just a thought.....
(You know, there used to be a 'thing' when one used an abbreviation that it would be defined - in parenthesis - the first time it was used, and would thereafter mean the same thing. It was for clarity. It was a good practice to keep everybody informed and on the same page).

Just a thought for DU...

11. Couldn't agree more
I was quite lost when I first stumbled into this place. I think you'll agree with me when I say TSRWOEP. Am I right?
