From today’s WaPo:
… many Republicans joined their Democratic colleagues in decrying the days of open-ended war and an open U.S. checkbook, and in demanding to know what the administration is doing to pressure the Iraqi government and military to take responsibility for its own fate. “We’re a generous people,” said Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), “but our patience is not unlimited.”
Perhaps the “standard” Republican response to compromise plans for Iraq will soon change to something more open-minded and accommodating.
Hope springs eternal.
