"I've seen this in Chechnya and believe me, when you start fighting a guerrilla war with carpet-bombing, you've lost. Period." The Daily Outrage delivers another cold cup of coffee about The Iraq Debaqle and our badly scrambling "Keystone Kolonialists."

Perhaps this will help wash down the craw-sticking new poll numbers from the University of Maryland's Program on International Policy Attitudes:

[A] majority of Americans (55%) believe that the Bush administration went to war on the basis of incorrect assumptions. An overwhelming 87% said that, before the war, the administration portrayed Iraq as an imminent threat, while a majority (58%) believes that the administration did not have evidence for this... with 61% saying that the US should have taken more time to find out if Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and 59% saying it should have taken more time to build international support.

As Bob Harris wrote over at This Modern World, "I'm buying stock in whoever makes Ambien."
