THE COMPLETE ARTICLE AND MORE --> OP-ED COLUMNIST A Foreign Policy Built on Do-Overs By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN Published: February 23, 2007 Watching the Bush team wrestle with Iran, North Korea and Iraq reminds me of something that used to be said of the Reagan administration: The right hand never knew what the far right hand was doing. In fact, my bet is that when the inside history of the Bush team is written, we will discover that, contrary to its carefully managed image of a disciplined core operating from consistent, conservative principles, it has actually been one of the most internally divided administrations ever. *** Resolving the contradiction in Washington will sharpen the contradiction in Tehran, Mr. Litwak argued. Taking regime change off the table in America will put behavior change on the table in Iran. I guess we should be thankful that Mr. Bush is trying to fix some of his mistakes, but we have paid a huge, unnecessary price for his learning curve. Which is why its always best to get it right the first time. The best golfers never take mulligans, and the best presidents never need them. --MORE-- http://mparent7777.blogspot.com/2007/02/foreign-policy-built-on-do-overs-thomas.html Labels: Bush Administration, congress Iraq, Iran, North Korea, The New York Times, THOMAS L.
