Wha, wha, get over yourself.
I responded to your call for "tempering" from the people who are there. Everything I've seen from the people who are there paint a far worse picture than the administration is spewing. And, more to the point, paint a picture that matches up almost blow-for-blow with what the pre-war intelligence said would happen - sectarian violence, ecalating towards full scale civil war, aided by foreing insurgency. This isn't what the Congressional detractors said, it's what Bush's military advisors predicted, and they were dead on right.
So yeah, I'm pretty okay with the media pointing that reality out, because all I can hope is that one of these days we'll learn from the fact that this make 6 for 6 over the past century or so where a US lead regime change, not instigated by local revolution, results in even bloodier civil war.
