The pitch for war against Iraq was about WMDs, which the adminstration were certain existed, and don't don't. That was either a lie, or a cock up so large that the head guy should be removed from office. Personally, I felt that Saddam should have been forcibly removed back in '98. So, the WMD issue just doesn't matter to me. The situation in Iraq over the last 6-9 months seems like a disaster. It could have gone better -- but it doesn't seem to me like a disaster. Progress has been slow but steady, and the handover went off on schedule and I believe the elections will, too. As for Abu Graib, the buck stops where? Bush is the top dog, so the responsibility for all military action leads back to him. A ridiculous assertion. That's like blaming Nixon for the actions of Calley.
