#1 If they were proactive, they should make demands for a Syrian or Iranian exit strategy.

#2 Wow! Does your Kennedy drink like our Kennedy? They certainly sound the same and they are rooting for the same side. Perhaps he is a long lost bastard of Joe?

LOL CS - Yes! Charles Kennedy has received stick in the past for excessive imbibtion - though you can't really blame him. In his position, in his party, I'd probably be hitting the bottle heavily too.

#5 I just saw the US Kennedy being interviewed by George what's-his-name (the dweeby guy from the Clinton administration.) George showed him the Walid Jumblatt statement that's been circulating about how the invasion of Iraq might just possibly have been responsible for the outbreak of democracy in the ME, and asked Ted whether Bush might be entitled to some credit.

To which Ted replied, "Absolutely..." I almost fell out of my chair. Of course, Ted then fuzzed up his statement by referring to American casualties, and George forgot to ask him any followup questions ("Salt with that crow, Senator?")

George Stephanopoulos. I'm not surprised George didn't follow up - the producer was probably screaming in his earpiece.

#7 Kennedy needs to remember the words of one of his country men:

"You ask, what is our policy? I will say: it is to wage war, by sea, land, and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us; to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
You ask, What is our aim? I answer in one word: Victory â victory at all costs; victory in spite of all the terror; victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival."

Maybe Tony Blair could say something comparable. He occasionally rises to heights. Meanwhile, I'd "settle" for Winston.
