The article showcases the two competing and hilarious post-Bush narratives that allow prominent Republicans to absolve themselves of responsibility for an eight-year-long disaster: That Bush is misunderstood and will eventually be vindicated by history, and that Bush and Bush alone is responsible for ruining the Republican “brand.”
The Senate’s three most predictable and least credible warmongering “moderates” frequently join forces to publish joint Op-Eds or hold press conferences and the one thing they always, invariably want is for the United States to have just a little bit more war than it currently has, somewhere far away. Sure, we could draw down in Iraq … or we could listen to McCain, Lieberman and Graham and draw back up. We could draw down in Afghanistan … or we could stay the course and keep sending troops there until we win! Americans may be tired of endless war with no coherent goal, but on the other hand, “only decisive force can prevail in [whatever country John McCain, Lindsey Graham, and Joe Lieberman are talking about now].”

Some Republicans are very concerned about the poor
