Serious Consequences.

I keep hearing and reading over and over again that the United States does not need another United Nations resolution to go to war with Iraq because Resolution 1441 says if Iraq does not obey it, there will be "serious consequences" by the UN. But as reported by England's C4 News the original wording was "all necessary means" which is the UN diplomatic term used to mean war. Furthermore, this phrase change was urged by France and Russia and our own ambassador to the UN John Negroponte was against the change because it wasn't enough to sanction war. So how do the President and all those political commentators get away with repeatedly misrepresenting this?
