The situation in Iraq according to right-wing columnist Ralph Peters (NY Post, Nov. 1) is
"We went to Iraq to overthrow a police state. Through a combination of stubbornness, naivete and noble intentions, we've replaced it with another police state - more violent, more corrupt and less accountable.
"As an Army officer remarked to me, Saddam's starting to look good."
So what's the Commander-in-chief doing? He must be meeting with his generals and other high-ranking U.S. and Iraqi officials to try to figure out how to solve the disaster in Iraq. That's obviously what any self-respecting war president would be doing. But wait what's this? At a GOP rally in Georgia, "a week before the midterm elections," the commander-in-chief is re-fighting the 2004 election.
I can't exactly blame him. It is, after all, the last battle he won.
"President Bush unleashed a guns-blazing assault on Sen. John Kerry [Monday] for telling young students they will 'get stuck in Iraq' if they don't get an education."
