Lookee what I found...my old McGovern for President poster. Decided it's time for me to pull it out given the Deep Throat disclosure and now Sen. McGovern's op ed in the Boston Globe today (via First Draft).
Seems like old times........One thing, however, is clear: Washington cannot determine Iraq's destiny. It doesn't matter how many times Condoleezza Rice or Donald Rumsfeld visit. It doesn't matter how many soldiers we deploy. The myriad factions in Iraq themselves must display the political will to demand a system of government that respects the diversity that exists in their country.
There are no easy answers in Iraq. But we are convinced that the United States should now set a dramatically different course -- one that anticipates US military withdrawal sooner rather than later. We should begin the discussions now as to how we can bring our troops home.
