There's tons of evidence about lying, corruption, theft...the problem still is..is there sufficient opposition political will? If Iraq is seen as in its windup phase, that makes things much more possible IMO.

PNAC is very open about what it wants. It's also thoroughly inept beyond pushing politicians around. Ditto the religious right.

The one good thing about Iraq is that it has weakened Bush from his position after 911. This will make the fight for the 1-3 openings in the SC much tougher if he (and he probably will) chooses someone like Rogers Brown or Owen or anyone of that ideologically inane ilk.
