So when are President Bush's critics, including those in his own State Department, going to concede that he was right all along to include Iran in the "axis of evil"?

When pigs fly.

There's not much Bush can do about his critics, except prove them wrong. But I don't know why he doesn't fire a few of the most egregious people in the State Department, or transfer them to a special embassy in Siberia.

Whats the old saying, "Keep your friends close...and your enemies closer."
Actually I don't disagree that foggy bottom could stand a good housecleaning. The State dept. is part of the permanent government. Admins and Secrataries of State come and go but the permanent government just keeps going their own way.
