I was prepared to say he had been bought off or something but I don't think so. I am amazed that he would come to these conclusions. He talked about the need to "win" but didn't define what this means. He spoke a little about the needs of the Iraqi people but mostly talked about the needs of the U.S. (or at least the ruling class needs). I am gravely disappointed in him.
