Good parallel, but what about John Warner's comment? Imagine election-year confirmation hearings for a new Secretary of Defense while involved in a two-front war. I started to say that the administration did it to itself but it wasn't just to themselves that they did it.

What a mess. I still don't think that the administration realizes the outrage. It is quite possible that nothing short of the above will satisfy world opinion. In any parliamentary democracy there would be a vote of no confidence right about now.

Oh and, anyone see the formation of an alternate ruling committee in Iraq?
I wanna see the administration explain why the US presence is nonetheles needed to preserve stability in Iraq.
