IT'S MY PARTY, I'LL MAKE WAR IF I WANT TO


WASHINGTON --- President Bush declared Monday that "knowing what I know today, we still would have gone on into Iraq."
"I don't think the president is helping himself when he says things like this. It's a real stretch to think that a majority of Americans would have been supportive of attacking Iraq in the absence of either a clear connection to Sept. 11 or an imminent WMD threat," said political analyst Charlie Cook. "Statements like this by the president only lend credence to the charges that he was determined to attack, no matter what," Cook said. --Los Angeles Times

Determination can be a virtue, but a leader must have the confidence of the people, not work confidence schemes upon them.
