Go read UnbornChickenVoice. Matt has a fairly persuasive argument that Congress is the one calling the shots these days. In a nutshell, the President depends on states with Republican congressmen for re-election, and his lil' war in Iraq make him beholden to his party. I think it has as much to do with the Pres' spending spree on No Child Left Behind and Medicare as Iraq, but we all assign blame based on which oxen we prefer gored. I left him with the Great Unanswered Question, hopefully we'll see a response.
