Lessons? We Were Supposed To Learn Lessons?

Former Senator Gary Hart on the lessons of the Iraq war.

[PS- This is hardly the most shocking, or most long-term, lesson we can learn from this experience, but here's one... never trust President Bush. Remember when he announced his escalation in January, he said he was sending an additional 21,500 troops? Turns out (and quite under the radar too) it's actually closer to 30,000. Maybe more later. And his staff was apparently too busy planning photo-ops to bother writing a new speech. See you next year.]
