The Slow Concession

White House admits fault on “Mission Accomplished” banner. Wolfowitz admits they were “clueless” in Iraq. We all know about the “WMDs” that never were. We’re still not in the “last throes” of anything. Is there anything left for the architects of this unjustified and immoral war to concede?

The anti-war left was right; the neocon right was wrong. When John McCain finally loses, I will be convinced that we are past this and heading in the right direction, so to speak. Until then I still can only wonder how we allowed all of this to happen, right before our eyes, when it was all so obviously wrong.
