William F. Buckley, Bush will be remembered for Iraq failure. |
|
William F. Buckley, one of many conservatives to actually see the light, and call the war in Iraq, a total failure, has now said that Bush's legacy will be the failed war, and he has to live with that.
Buckley, lashed out at Bush saying, "Mr Bush is in the hands of a fortune that will be umremitting in Iraq. If he invented the Bill of Rights, it wouldn't help him to get out of this jam". He also said that "It is important that we acknowledge that the war has failed".
He didn't spare either Donald Rumsfeld or Dick Cheney are criticism either. He called a Rumsfeld a good friend, but a failed executor. He said Cheney was flatly misled- actually believing that there were WMD's in Iraq. (Frankly, I find this statement that he was flatly misled, hard to believe).

1. And destroying the US economy. And wiping away the US middle class. |
|
And creating the civil liberties of a police state. And transforming the SCOTUS to a tribunal of theocratic elders. And doing NOTHING about peak oil/US oil dependence......

7. Exactly - much as I have opposed the war in Iraq as strongly as anyone |
|
I think we may one day come to see the Iraq war as only the lesser of the Chimp's screw-ups and misguided policies.

2. How could Cheney be flatly mislead when he was the.... |
|
misleader. Is Buckley that uninformed or he is plain stupid? We have acknowledged the war is a failure but most Republicans refuse to admit it.

9. Neither, I bet. He is part of a scheme to make Bush take the fall, and |

keep Cheney out of jail down the road.
