I was pleasantly surprised to find this in the morning paper. (If someone else covered this a cursory search of Kos failed to find it)
"Even the most liberal-bashing, war-mongering, beef-eating American surely struggled to keep a straight face as the Bush administration expressed moral indignation about a Newsweek story that went belly-up on account of . bad intelligence.
If anyone on God's green earth should understand that sometimes information is flawed, that one would be President George W. Bush, whose arguments in favor of invading Iraq proved to be similarly false."

Kathleen Parker has been one of the most conservative columnists down here in the tropics, today she takes the White House to task for it's treatment of the Newsweek affair. She doesn't take the bait of the Downing Street memo and still believes the President did not lie...maybe she'll come around someday. She saves the best line for last:
"By contributing to the cacophony of criticism, officials merely reminded people of this administration's own reliance on unreliable sources, giving the hate-Bush crowd fresh grenades to lob. As careful students of life's rulebook know, those who wage war don't get to play victim."
