Bush Admits Post-War Miscalculation
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...727EDT0492.DTL
Cliff notes:
"In an interview with The New York Times, Bush said for the first time that he made a "miscalculation of what the conditions would be" after U.S. troops went to Iraq and toppled the regime of President Saddam Hussein in May 2003. The insurgency, he maintained, was the unintended result of a "swift victory" that led to Iraqi troops disappearing into the cities and mounting a rebellion."
And to all speculators:
"As for Bush's convention speech, "I think we'll have real news," says White House communications director Dan Bartlett, who wouldn't give up any details."
Hmmm... pull Osama out of his cyrogenic chamber?

I said a while back that that would not surprise me if they pulled osama out of a hat right around election or convention time.
