GEORGE WILL IS ALSO AN APPEASER

The Editors note that prominent conservative columnist George Will bailed on Fredo's Fiasco in August 2006 so I decided to see if I could find a great quote from Will to amuse & edify the wingnuts.

Where Is Iraq After Nearly 3 Years of War?
By George F. Will
Thursday, March 2, 2006; Page A21
(excerpts)

Almost three years after the invasion, it is still not certain whether, or in what sense, Iraq is a nation. And after two elections and a referendum on its constitution, Iraq barely has a government.
