...Bush's credibility gap is between his ears. He was hell bent on going to war with Iraq and had made the decision months earlier. British Prime Minister Tony Blair was equally stupid. I don't pretend to know how they can get out of the mess in Iraq, but Bush wants to solve Iraq's problems in time for his re-election campaign.

The good news, though, may be that mass killings of innocent civilians, such as the latest twin bombings directed at Shiite worshippers in Kerbala and Baghdad, may actually help the Coalition maintain...
...might say, for instance, that Brian Palmer plays fast and loose with academics, that his class is bent more around liberal ideology than scholarly pursuits. To which, he and his supporters chime in, “you bet.” At every Palmer event I’ve attended (about five), he references a New York Times article which labels his class, appropriately, “Idealism 101” and distributes a Christian Science Monitor expose that depicts him as a liberal ideologue in and outside the classroom. He was a featured speaker at Harvard?...
