Hoping to sway reluctant
nations. Bush presented a laundry
list of Saddam’s alleged offenses,
some of them newly revealed to
the public. He said intelligence
sources have reported that thou
sands of Iraqi personnel are at
work hiding documents and
materials from the U.N. weapons
inspectors.
Specifically, Bush said
Saddam has not accounted for up
to 25,000 liters of anthrax, 38,000
liters of botulinum toxin, 500
tons of sarin, mustard gas and VX
nerve agent and more than
30,000 munitions capable of
delivering chemical weapons.
“If this is not evil, then evil
has no meaning,” Bush said.
The speech was delivered
amid intense security as lawmak
ers, Cabinet members, military
leaders and Supreme Court jus
tices gathered in the House cham
ber. Several hundred people
massed on the Capitol lawn to
protest Bush’s policies, ranging
from a possible war in Iraq to his
approach to health care.
The president described the
nation as still recovering from
recession, terrorist attacks, corpo
rate scandals and stock market
declines. “Our economy is recov
ering, yet it is not growing fast
enough or strongly enough,” the
president said.
He proposed spending new
money for research to develop
hydrogen powered cars and to
tutor children of prison inmates.
He also called for a new $6(X)
million drug treatment program
in which federal money could go
to religious community service
programs.
Bush called on Congress to
ban a procedure critics call
“partial-birth” abortions and
human cloning.

“This is classic war oratory,” Ritter
said. “We’re going to war with Iraq, or
perhaps Bush is trying to persuade
Hussein that we are going to war unless
he gives up his weapons.”
Ritter also said Bush named exam
