do you recall when gwbush promised in his first campaign that he would not engage in 'nation building'?
yes, i actually do remember that.
do you think that iraq was a worthwhile exception?
that depends on which way lebanon goes, the price of oil, the palestinian question, what ultimately happens in sudan and the price tag of the deficit.
those are tough obstacles and they're only tangential to iraq itself.
c'mon. you think compassionate conservatism is enough?
