SAN FRANCISCO - Democratic presidential candidate Dick Gephardt (news - web sites) on Tuesday issued a blistering criticism of the Bush administration's "chest-beating unilateralism" in its handling of the Iraq (news - web sites) war, which he said weakened diplomatic alliances and squandered global goodwill following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"Foreign policy isn't a John Wayne movie, where we catch the bad guys, hoist a few cold ones and then everything fades to black," Gephardt said in remarks prepared for a speech to the Bar Association of San Francisco. "No matter the surge of momentary machismo as gratifying as it may be for some it is shortsighted and wrong to simply go it alone."
