FRONT PAGE TODAY'S WASHINGTON POST:
Be sure to translate the following into plain English. Tens of thousands dead and maimed, a few trillion dollars lost (to most of us;a few made out big time) for nothing.
Actually, I think it was to achieve a more dangerous world. Think the military-industrial complex wants perpetual war? I do. There's really no other explanation that makes sense.
Oops!, Sorry. I forgot. It was Bill Clinton and the 'librul' media who caused the failure in Iraq. Right? Pass the kool-aid, please.

The Bush administration is significantly lowering expectations of what can be achieved in Iraq, recognizing that the United States will have to settle for far less progress than originally envisioned during the transition due to end in four months, according to U.S. officials in Washington and Baghdad.
The United States no longer expects to see a model new democracy, a self-supporting oil industry or a society in which the majority of people are free from serious security or economic challenges, U.S. officials say.
