Just four months after Sept. 11, George Bush identified Iran, Iraq and North Korea as the "axis of evil" and declared that defanging these rogue regimes was America's most urgent national security task.
Seems kind of odd to me.
Just 4 months after Bob's house was burned down by arsonists, he identified termites, mold and monsoons as the biggest threat to his household.
It's a bit of a dodgy start.
Anyway, despite Mr. Krauthammer's insistence, I don't know how anyone can call Iraq "a success". It certainly didn't turn out like they planned. "Success" would have been what they said was going to happen, and it didn't, so it has to be considered a failure.
