Washington, D.C. -- On Jan. 28, the president will deliver the 2003 State of the Union address, the day after Hans Blix delivers the "Interim Report" of the United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) to the Security Council. On Wednesday, Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair will sit down to map out "next steps" for dealing with Iraq. By Friday, every pundit with an inkwell and pollster with a telephone will be taking pot shots at the president.
Last year, the snipers in the "punditocracy" decided that the president's description of Iran, Iraq and North Korea as the "axis of evil" during his State of the Union remarks gave them enough ammunition for a turkey shoot. In retrospect, "axis of evil" seems to be an understatement.
