It's good to see that not all Americans are Bush fanatics and that they realize the extent of the mistakes made two years ago. Personally, I've recently gained a lot of respect for Sen. Chuck Hagel who lightly mocked the white house's intelligence in one sentence: "What I think the White House does not yet understand — and some of my colleagues — the dam has broke on this policy. The longer we stay there, the more similarities (to Vietnam) are going to come together."
Another favorite quote of mine from the same article is when Hagel said "stay the course" is not a policy. "By any standard, when you analyze 2 1/2 years in Iraq ... we're not winning."
US Presidency for 2008? I'm all for Hagel if only because of his obvious discontent with the situation in Iraq.
