Here's a half-assed theory for you...do you suppose President Bush signed CFR knowing he'd need the political goodwill down the road (I'm thinking specifically of Senator McCain's recent statement supporting Bush's justification for wanting to oust Saddam)? I would hope not, but it isn't completely out of the realm of possibility.

I don't know what to believe any more. I am so discouraged by the shameless displays of childishness and dishonesty and just plain hatefulness in some cases that I see in Washington that it is hard to believe that many of them are thinking about the American people or the future well-being of our country at all.
