"Failing each time"? I know it's your MO to shout "Scoreboard!" when anyone decries anything the GOP does, but I'm not entirely sure that's a good idea. A surprising number of GOP moderates are willing to agree that Bush overstated the case for war against Iraq --- they tend to side with the president over whether it was
nevertheless worthwhile, but this idea that Bush remained on solid swear-on-grandma's-grave credibility ground throughout this international debacle is starting to look a little bit like Indian territory against Manifest Destiny.
Only 52% of Americans say the war was worth fighting, down from a high of 70% in April. For those of us who think the "Let's all go to war!" decision should look a bit more like a jury verdict and less like a Coke-versus-Pepsi poll, that's a pretty low number. You're entitled to feel differently, though. This is America, where it is always and everywhere classy to throw stones at powerful men.
