"I wish the president had paid more attention to the history of Iraq before we had gotten in there. The idea that we're going to win this war is just plain wrong." - Howard Dean
This statement was made a mere ten days before the election of a representative, constitutional government. This is the third vote for Iraqis in this process. When Iraqis choose a government, will that be considered a failure by Howard Dean?
Answer: Yes, but only because they will have succeeded again while Dean is claiming the opposite. Every political goal has thus far been met, including the creation of a constitution in a measly six months. Apparently Mr. Dean has become a world historian since 2004 when he was referring to Russia as the Soviet Union.
The drive for political advantage displayed by Dean is deplorable and I'd direct Democrats to distance themselves from his comments.
Update: Even California Democrats distanced themselves from Mr. Dean's comments.
