Hi Sam; Re: "So, Carl, do you still believe that George "It is our duty to stay the course and change the world" Bush is preparing to withdraw from Iraq?" It's not really a "belief", it's a "hope". But look at the WMD situation. The Bush administration eventually was forced to admit that they weren't there. If the situation in Iraq becomes bloody enough, they will also be forced to admit that the situation is untenable. Re: "Did you hear David Brooks on the Newshour say that Kerry's father wrote a book on how and why the US ought not base foreign policy actions on American exceptionalism?" Too bad Kerry's father isn't running for President. They say that the acorn doesn't fall far from the tree, but that's not been my observation. If GWB had his dad's wisdom, we wouldn't be in Iraq. I still haven't seen a realistic statement by Kerry on what he wants to do in Iraq. For that matter, humans have a remarkable ability to backtrack on their own theories, or at least be capable of misinterpreting it. Look at the "Powell Doctrine". -- Carl P.S. I didn't see the video, but in the stills, Bush looked a little ragged.
