October 7, 2006

The White House, caught off guard by a leading Republican senator who said the situation in Iraq was drifting sideways…

Speaking to reporters on Thursday after returning from a trip that included a one-day stop in Baghdad, Mr. Warner said the United States should consider a change of course if the violence there did not diminish soon.

Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., the senior Democrat on the Foreign Relations Committee, convened a conference call on Friday afternoon to hammer home the theme that even Republicans believed that the administration must change course. Warner’s statement is an important, important statement and, I hope, a turning point, Mr. Biden told reporters.

He said that at least two Republican colleagues other than Mr. Warner had told him that once the election was over, they would join with Democrats in working on a bipartisan plan for bringing stability to Iraq. Echoing Mr. Warner’s language, he said, ‘I wouldn? take any option off the table at this time. We are at the point of no return.’

-O-

Senator Warner is the latest to say
That the PR about Iraq we hear today

IS WRONG

Don’t think Bush didn’t know
He did. He only meant to snow

IT’S WRONG

Iraq is a maelstrom, a complete mess
At least Warner did confess

HOW WRONG

From the start the lies were told to fight
Conniving to make you think wrong was right

BUT IT WAS WRONG FROM THE START

Bush and his team, who think in black and white
With even MORE lies they try to persuade us it’s right

BUT IT IS SO VERY VERY WRONG [comments] => 3 [counter] => 258 [topic] => 57 [informant] => steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => war )
