NATIONAL V·IEW Taking root· Toppling Saddams statues strikes major blow for liberty • The Dallas Morning News, on Saddam sstatues falling: The Bush and Blair governments got the pictures they wanted and deserved. Iraqis marching through Baghdad, jubilantly waving their anns and jumping on Saddam Hussein's fallen statue. The White House and I 0 Downing St. promised Iraq's liberation would lead to exultation. And it did. The persuasive images should show the United Nations, the French, the Germans, the Russians and other doubters that the AngiG-American alliance can deliver. The images of April 9 will have another effect, too. They should cause anxiety in Arab capitals like Damascus. Seeing Iraqis .dance so merrily should cause leaders like Syria's Bashar Assad to worry about their own stability. Not that the Anglo-American alliance should march into Damascus. Rather, that freedom could waft across Iraq's bo~ders into places where it doesn't abound: That includes in Riyadh and Cairo, where even American allies have governed with tight hands. The pictures from Baghdad also could give rise to terrorism. Al-Qaeda recruiters will twist the images to suit their own purposes. You can hear them ' now. talking about Western governments sending troops into Arab capitals. They especially .will use the momentary display of an American flag on top of Saddam Hussein's statue to justify their cause. Americans must remain on guard because the war against terrorism is far from complete. Still, April 9 was for celebration. Baghdad finds itself alongside Berlin as the source of images of fteedom. May liberty now take· root in Iraq. TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Tuesday, May 6, the I 26th day of 2003. There · are 239 days left in the year.

Thought for Today: "In music one must think with the heart and feel with the brain ."- Geo·rge Siell, Hungarian• American conductor (1897-197~). Boosted by Iraq victory, Bush wants tax win No one can accuse President Bush of failing to be a conviction politician or of refusing to spend political capital to achieve his goals. . He risked his presidency on the idea of "regime change" in Iraq and has won - so far. Now, he's going for broke to convince a dubious Senate to give him at least a $550 billion tax CUI. On the merits, it remains to be seen whether either the Iraq war or Bush's tax cuts will be a long-term bene!it for the United States, but in the shan term, the war's success ha~ boosted Bush's political suppan for the tax fight. According to the liberal . Democracy Corps' monthly polling review, "Military victory in Iraq has brought about a surge of optimism in public opinion about the direction of our country and the economy." Nearly 20 polls released over the last two weeks show consistently high suppon for the military action in Iraq and President Bush's handling of the issue. "They show a majority of Americans once again (eeling that the country is going in the right direction and consumer confidence has staged astrong r;Uly after reaching a I 0-year low less than a month earlier." Bush's overall approval ratings now average 70 percent, . up from 62 percent in March and . 58 percent in April. Although Bush's ratings are not in the 90 percent range he recorded after the Sept. II , 200 I, terrorist attacks and his father scored after the first Gulf War. While the public's notion of whether the country is on the . economic .problem, including budget deficits, is tax cuts the bigger the better. So, with victory won in Iraq, Bush has launched a national campaign to win passage of Morton $550 billion in tax cuts- with Kondracke more to follow. Because Bush is also such a hard-line partisan, his ability to attract Democrat' to his side lias now shrunk to almost zero. right or wrong track has gone In 2001, he won suppon from from negative to positive, eight Democratic Senators for Bush's approval ratings on the his previous $1.6 trillion cut. economy remain lackluster.

Medicare, Medicaid or veter- · ans' benefits. The ·Washington Post suggested in an editorial that Bush · "take $350 billion and run." For sure, he should take $450 · billion if he can get it. He : could call it another victory. (Monon Kondracke is exec- ' utive editor of Roll Call, the newspaper of Capitol Hill.) RACINE Don C.

(AP) Reds notebook CINCINNATI (AP) For whale ver reason , the Cincinnati Reds are at their be st at the end of Close games. That's when Aaron Boone shines. Boone led off the bottom of the ninth with a homer off Dustin Hermanson for a S-4 victory Monday night that stopped the St. Louis Cardinal s' winning streak at seven games. Boone doubled home a coupl e of run s in the first , then won it with his sixth homer of the season, setting up another group huddleand-jump at home plate. Eight of Cincinnati 's 14 wins have come in its last at-bat. " We keep showing a lot of heart ," said Boone, who had two game-ending homers last season. "If we can han g around , we seem to find a way to win. If we're. going to win a lot of games, we've got to play cleaner games." The Reds allowed a surpri sing fou'r-run lead off Woody William s to slip away because of more shoddy defense. They had a season -high four errors, . giving them 41 for the season, the most in the majors . The two decisive mistakes were made by Williams and Hermanso·n (0-1 ). Each left a slider over the plate for Boone, and quickly regretted it. Hermanson opened the ninth by throwing a pair of strikes, then missed twice before going to his slider. Boone is one of the Reds' best clutch hitters. He's hitting .333 with runners in scoring position, and knows how to relax under lateinning pressure. Scott Williamson (3-1) relieved anf.l got a strikeout and a harmless fly to escape a threat in the top of the ninth. The Reds got off to a fast start against Williams, who has been the Cardinals' most dominant starter only four runs allowed in his first five starts. He came -into the game with a I .09 ERA that led the majors. In only two mnings Monday, he doubled his run total. Jose Guillen extended his hitting streak to · 10 games with a run-scoring double in the first, and Boone. doubled home two more.

(AP) - The Mighty Ducks are flying into the Western Conference finals for the first time. After sweeping defending Stanley Cup champion Detroit in tile first round, Anaheim beat the top-seeded Dallas Stars 4-3 Monday night to move within four wins of the Stanley Cup finals. Like the Anaheim Angels' improbable run to their first World Series title last fall which included a series win against the defending AL champion Yankees - the seventh-seeded Ducks are on a postseason roll. Sandis Defenseman Ozolin'11 knocked a rebound past Marty Turco with 1:06 remaining to lift the Ducks to the win over Dallas that clinched Anaheim's 4-2 series win over the Stars. With fans banging their plastic "Pond Rockers" white versions of the red "ThunderStix" Angels' fans used last October - and waving "Fowl towels," the Ducks trailed early against the Swrs, then moved ahead onl y to see Dallas co me back to tie twice, the final time on Brenden Morrow's goal with 5: II remaining. Then , Ozolinsh scored his first goal of the playoffs after ;Turco blocked Mike Leclerc 's shot from the right circle and the puck bounced out in front of the crease. The sellout crowed of 17,174 erupted. In the other NHL playoff games Monday, Ottawa beat Philadelphia 5-1 to reach the Eastern Conference finals for the first time in the franchise's 11 -year history; and Minnesota avoided elimination with a 7-2 rout of Vancouver. Dallas coach Dave Tippett obv.iously respects the Ducks. Anaheim will face the Vancouver-Minnesota winner in the conference final. The Canucks lead that series 3-2, with Game 6 on Wednesday and, if necessary, Game 7 on Thursday. Ozolinsh 's goal capped a wild third period. That goal counted, unlike the one the Stars .thought they had with 7:58 remaining. Stu Barnes put the puck past Giguere at close range, but after a review, the goal was disallowed because officials ruled that the net was di slodged just before the shot. Defenseman Ruslan Salei had given the Ducks a 3-2 edge 3:22 into the third period with hi s first goal of the playoffs. from Page 6 .
