Reid Catches Up with Left

One of the under-appreciated facts about the Iraq War is that the left has been right on the money every step of the way. Most of all, the left has been absolutely correct in its assessment of the Bush administration as delusional and incompetent. The idea that George W. Bush is the "worst president in American history" has been canvassed so much on the left that people have gotten bored with the topic.

Now, there's evidence that the Democrats are catching up. Today, Harry Reid characterized the Iraq War as the "worst foreign policy mistake in the history of this country." That's important. The Democrats have been captivated by "the Vietnam Syndrome" for too long. As Reid acknowledged, Iraq is even worse than Vietnam. In fact, the only thing in American history that's gone as disastrously as the Iraq War has been the British occupation of the U. S. during the American Revolution.

Maybe I should send Reid one of our bright yellow "W:Worst President Ever" bumper stickers.
