A Good Year for the Outlaw

Gotta love it. Nothing but hardball from Sen. Warner, Sen. Hagel, Sen. Coleman, and Sen. Lugar, all GOP’ers, today, at the Senate Foreign Relations Committee meeting with General Patreaus.  If the Bush administration was expecting “toe the line” partisanship…um, well…no. Wrong again.

It’s certainly a case of too little, too late for many of these Repubs, who are now trying to save face (and their jobs, in many cases) after the dismal performance of the Worst President Ever, but at least they’re seeing the light, finally. With the notable exception of Hagel, of course, who’s been critical of the Iraq “war” for a long, long time.

As we sit here tonight, six years later, and wonder why the bearded evil one still is making tapes (and dying his beard black), here we also sit tonight, with Generals being grilled by Senators on the subject of Iraq…a country that had nothing to do with 9/11. Nothing.
