I know this is tough concept for you, being a far right extremist and all, but in the mainstream-America world the possibility exists where more than one party can be at fault. I know, I know, it sounds bizarre, but ya just gotta trust me on this.

Sure Saddam screwed up - and in a BIG way. But that doesn't give us carte blanche to do whatever we choose. We have to take responsibility for our actions. Bouche needs to take responsibility for his actions.

NO one is advocating a cut and run strategy. Well, except maybe Nader. Although it may not be perfect, Kerry has at least made reference to a plan. That's more than Bouche's "stay the course" rhetoric has alluded to.

And what will admitting we screwed up accomplish? Hopefully it will hold those accountable for making the grave errors they did. Hopefully it will keep us from repeating our mistakes. Hopefully it will help us reestablish the allied relationships we enjoyed with much of the world. Hopefully it will allow the world to view us as a true leader and not a dominator.

And by the way,
sounds so (Dick Cheney) childish.
