[Ha, according to uberhack Walter Russell Mead, the "Henry A. Kissinger Senior Fellow in U.S. Foreign Policy" at the Council on Foreign Relations, the Iraq vote really puts Bush's critics in their place:]

"It was a big, climactic moment in history, which this clearly was because it had a lot of dramatic consequences and will be unfolding for many years," said historian Walter Russell Mead, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. "Certainly at this point, you have to say that the Bush administration's critics have made as many mistakes as the Bush administration in assessing Iraq."
