This is just about the last nail that needs to go into the Bush Doctrine coffin to bury it for good. Let's not make any more cracks about the Euroweenies or 'Cheese eating surrender monkeys.' We're well on our way to full membership in the E.U. thanks to a President who has little if any political courage. The record of the Bush Administration is an object lesson of what it means to govern without a guiding political philosophy.

Aussiegirl knows whereof she speaks. What a pity it is that she does. As for Mr. Richards, the only faint heart seems to reside in the breast of the President.
