you are not my typewriter

{Wednesday, December 14, 2005 . bush}

Bush admitted today that much of the intelligence that led us to invade Iraq was wrong.

I felt a tiny temptation to be snarky and cynical and say something to the effect of, "too little, too late," but I can't help but feel like this is a really big step in the right direction.

Bush has never really made a move like this. Maybe he's mellowing out in his old age. Maybe he'll start giving up his self-righteous bullshit and actually start considering what his critics are saying and why.

I'm not being sarcastic. I think this is a very important move. And I really do think that this could be heralding the formation of a serious, comprehensive exit plan for Iraq.

At least I REALLY hope that's what it means. It certainly could!
