Is Steyn the only guy in the media who figured out, one year before we toppled Saddam, what the purpose of our policy in Iraq was?

Actually, Bush told us before he did it. The media and most everyone else glossed over it in their rush to condemn the invasion.

-"Actually, Bush told us before he did it."

- You've put your finger on why Steyn seems to be so prescient on many matters. He's one of the few journalist's who listens carefully to what Bush says and, rather than assuming that he's "triangulating" or lying, he believes what he hears and then just extrapolates what will likely happen when Bush carries through with his promise.
