In Nixon's time, there were many patriotic, reasonable Republicans for whom it was more important to do the right thing for America than support their party's President. Now there are only about 14 patriotic, reasonable Republicans in both Houses - not enough to make a positive difference, but enough to block the others, at least the four in the Senate. Were there more patriotic, reasonable Republicans, some heads would have rolled by now, President's wishes or not.

Bush's speech described perfectly in Globe:

"Bush's very scripted address last night was designed to change the impression of an inarticulate, tentative president without an exit plan from Iraq. The occupation will end on June 30, he said. There will be a new Iraqi president, a prime minister, two vice presidents, and 26 ministers. How this mystery government will end the violence was left unanswered, giving Bush the air of a man who still believes in the tooth fairy."
