"Let's put it simply...the Bush/Cheney doctrine has failed. It was doomed from the start. Based upon false premises and naive presumptions. We are now paying the bitter price for this incompetence - most notably in the price of a gallon of gasoline, but more importantly in the ever increasing loss of life. Conditions in the Middle East are worse now than they were six years ago and steadily getting even worse. Even Newt Gingrich is talking about World War III."

Where have you been Don?
There is nothing new about about GWOT being WWIII- actually it's more accurate to call it WWIV.
And the price of gasoline, is hardly an important issue as compared to others. As for conditions in the Middle East- again, just becoming aware of them, are you? They aren't new. Millions of people dying from Malaria, Aids raging, genocide in Sudan, and Donny is worried about paying a bit more to run his SUV.

But changes in the Middle East is the most important element. And the not changing of the brutially is not some sort of "good". The kite flying is a big fat lie.
As for doctrine- all you have shown is the doctrine of sticking your head in the sand.

"When will the neocons recognize their failures? We need someone like Bill Clinton back in the White House and a Congress driven by intelligence rather than rhetoric."

Someone like Bill Clinton?
Hey, dummy this started BEFORE Clinton was in office and then he spent 8 years not doing enough about it. And there is no reason that Bill Clinton can not do as much out of office as in office- unless of course time needed to run his wife for office. And look at what your pal Gore is doing- what waste of human skin he is. Global warming. Pathetic.

No, the dems have instead spend most of their time hating Bush and crying about the various elections they have lost. No one is stopping them from adding something constructive- but no, they apparently think that their weak and silly attack of Bush is somehow good for them and the country. They are so hopelessly stupid- probably due to all the drugs they didn't inhale. After all the million of tonnes of this stuff has got to be going somewhere [and other than Hollywood].
