There's something much worse than being accused of "flip-flopping": refusing to flip when it's obvious that your course of action is a flop.
I say this to President Bush as someone who learned the hard way how embracing the world's complexity can be twisted into a crude political shorthand. Barbed words can make for great politics. But with U.S. troops in Iraq in the middle of an escalating civil war, this is no time for politics. Refusing to change course for fear of the political fallout is not only dangerous -- it is immoral.
I'd rather explain a change of position any day than look a parent in the eye and tell them that their son or daughter had to die so that a broken policy could live.
No one should be looking for vindication in what is happening in Iraq today. The lesson here is not that some of us were right about Iraq or that some of us were wrong. The lesson is simply that we need to change course rapidly rather than perversely use mistakes already made and lives already given as an excuse to make more mistakes and lose even more lives

OMG ... this isn't scrappleface, it really is JonCarry doing a self-parody.
If idiots liberals had been patriotic and backed this war, it would have been over with.
Quoth the French Poodle:
Yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, yap!
look at me... LOOK at ME!!!Why would President Bush need to change in Iraq since Kerry went to Syria and got their commitment to change their ways?
Once a moron, always a moron.
The new babe who now runs the Outlook (editorial) section of the Washington Post (all articles except the official editorials) has made no secret that she is going to turn the already far-left slant of the section into a Daily KOs for the liberal limosine set. The occasional conservative article they would post to give them a cover of "balance" was thrown out and it now is just a flood of poorly written and reasoned columns from the Kerrys and Dodds and any RINO they can sucker in with a little ouff coverage in their Style section.
Even the comics in the Post are heavily loaded with ultra-left and reverse racist comics like Doonesbury, Boondocks, etc. This is the drivel that replaced classics like Calvin and Far Side.
The biggest question? When will Jean-Fraude announce his candidacy for the RAT nomination?
What a loser.
What a fool.

No Joke.

John Kerry needs a strait jacket and a Hannibal Lecter mask.
That's it in a nutshell.
John, I done tol' you once! SHUT. YER. PIE. HOLE. !
Your Friend an butt buddy,

Bush has been negligent of America in giving freedom to these horrid lands...
We need freedom FROM these lands, not for them.
I say bomb em back to the stone age.....then they will think twice about messing with us....and will gladly become a Democratic Nation, just like Japan did, tail between their legs, after Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I dont drink the Bush Koolaid.
Well the Islamofascisist have lasted over a thousand years, and mean to conquer the world.With the help of ignorant fools like Johns Kerry, they might actually come out of their chocks fast enough to do it.
I am reminded of those historical sychophants to the National Socialists of Germant, Charles A. Lindbergh and Joseph Kennedy,both ignorant liberals who could not stand on the strength of fact and evidence, but went wool gathering into the presumed friendly arms of tyrants.Even today liberals are still trying to reconstruct them.
Like Kerry they were fools who too readily abandoned the basic American tenant that a human being, more than anything, longs for personal freedom. The human spirit thirsts for it and wilts without it. Men like Kerry too soon forget, impressed like parrots that look in mirrors and listen to their own words so much that they believe they have discovered more important truths, fooling themselves and as many others as they can take with them.
Nuts to you John Kerry. You are simply on the wrong side of history, and this weekend, the Ethiopians show us the way, as they have for countless centuries in this battle.
When all is said and done, this is how John Kerry will be remembered:
Nice post-
Do you write a blog?
If you do send me a link, if not- you should consider starting one. Most blogs are free and easy to start up.
This is well thought out, well written and easy to read and follow.
IMO, John Kerry has forgotten about one important ingredient when it comes to Iraq. He has completely forgotten about the Iraqi people and their needs.
I wonder if John Kerry has ever spoken to any of the Iraqi leaders?
Wow- you should write a blog too!
