Currently listening to the radio. Discussion is about this very issue: Paul O'Neill's book. Some apologist for the Bush administration (can't recall his name, but he was introduced as a member of both the American Enterprise Institute and the Project for the New American Century) is going on about how the war with Iraq (begun by Bush the Elder) never ended, that Clinton, even though he continued to enforce no-fly zones, didn't have the guts to do what needed to be done (invade Iraq), and of course the Bush administration was talking about a planned invasion from "day one" because (now, get this!) he was merely continuing Clinton's (Clinton's!??) foreign policy.

He also quotes Condoleezza Rice: "This war is a generational committment."

These people are truly amazing!!
