After all Madeleine Dimbulb missed as Sec. of State and the disaster she left behind, why would anyone bother to even talk with this nutcase?

The only opportunity we missed there was not having women in combat--failing to have Maddy the Marxist Mouth serve America on advance mine-detection duty....

/sarcasm

STFU Madeline. She's just po'd because Bush had the stones to do in the first two years of his administration what Clinton would/could not do in 8 years in office.

"In the democratic symphony, elections are but a single note. An election that produces more of the same, or possibly even worse, will mean neither success nor victory."
Oh you mean like the second reelection of Clinton.

She was one of those sharp knives in Clinton's drawer's. No pun intended!

Her opposition to the Iraq policy confirms it's validity.
Bush is achieving everything she said was not possible.
Just another Liberal who's own policies have proved to be failures.
That's her real problem here, she's been shown to be wrong, again.

But to have any chance of turning things around, the administration must do what it has steadfastly refused to do — admit mistakes....
=======
This is really all the leftists want -- FOR BUSH TO ADMIT MISTAKES --- so they can say "SEE WE TOLD YOU SO"...just more garbage from the bottom-feeding left.

Bitch! If this public official had spent less time giving her boss's shoes a spit polish with her tongue, we'd have likely been spared having to take most of the actions that she's complaining about now. Everly Clinton official should be scorned for the rubish they were in office.

Yep, to the Dems, it's the results of the election that matter, not the will of the voters - which they have shown time and time again in this country. Why would Iraq be any different?

The left is so angry that Bush isn't the miscreant Clinton was/is. They are desperate to nail him on anything.

It has long been obvious that the Bush administration lacks a viable plan for success in Iraq. The hardest political job — drafting a constitution acceptable to all factions — has not even begun.

It took much longer for this country to draft it's final constitution, from the time that the Revolutionary War ended.

"But to have any chance of turning things around, the administration must do what it has steadfastly refused to do — admit mistakes; emphasize a political instead of a military strategy; do what it takes to secure the cooperation of Iraq's neighbors;..."

Which neighbors of Iraq might that be?

This whole article is a bunch of B.S.

The Articles of Confederation didn't take root. America is a failure. Vomit.

Albrights biggest accomplishment as SOS was creating a small discussion about broachs.

Exactly. The left is still trying to justify the reprobate behavior of Clinton, and Bush simply flies in their criminal faces --- they cannot stand it!!! The big spot light in the sky is on the crooked left, and they are running like cockroaches from the light...
