Bush Open To Suggestions On Iraq

    A White House security advisor says that Mr.Bush is open to some of  Donald Rumsfeld's suggestions on dealing with the mess in Iraq.

    Rumsfeld had suggested that we put more troops near the Iraqi borders at Syria and Iran, some minor withdrawals of personnel  from the U.S. and other coalition members, for starters.

    HMMMM! Hasn't the Democrats and others been trying to suggest this for some time only to have Bushco tell them it wasn't going to happen?

    "Of course they're being considered," Bush adviser
Stephen Hadley said.

Rice Not Ready To Discuss U.S. ' Mistakes' in Iraq

By LINDSAY HAMILTON

ABC News

Dec. 2, 2006 — Although she is not yet ready to explain herself, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is admitting that the United States has made mistakes in Iraq.

"As to whether the United States has made mistakes: Of course, I'm sure we have," Rice told the Arabic satellite television station Al-Arabiya. "You can't be involved in something as big as the liberation of a country like Iraq and all that has happened since, and I'm sure there are things that we could have done differently."

However, Rice told Al-Arabiya that now is not the time to talk about U.S. mistakes in Iraq.     More HERE

      Notice that Rice is still towing the Bushco line by calling the war a 'liberation'.
