the oh so reasonable architect of installing democracy in the arab world by force of arms thinks it could have been done better? And John Kerry has been "too political" about it? Somebody buy this man a stiff drink. His crap reinforced the Bushies through the run up and into the war while Democrats in the senate had a sincere debate. I thought Robert Byrd was right but my opinion was purely political. I live in Texas and I don't trust anybody named Bush. But Kerry, Biden, Clinton, et al really tried to "leave politics at the waters edge" because so called "moderate" intellectuals like Friedman thought it was a  good idea to march to Baghdad. Throw this bum out.
