From America's point of view, this makes good sense - why bother to vote if the resolution is going to be rejected? - but it's definately shafting their main ally. Tony Blair has staked his political future on his ability to get a second resolution authorising force through the UN security council; if it doesn't even go to a vote, where does that leave him?
OTOH, Bush has already shown that he'll screw even his friends if he thinks he can get some political mileage out of it.
