When I began this blog in 2001, I was appalled by President Bush's headlong rush to an illegal war (we were not in fact under attack). As time wore on and Bush began his assault on the Constitution and any people bold enough to criticize, I believed that "the republic is endangered more by actions of our own government than by those of any terrorist." With the election of a high-minded, compassionate, intelligent man like Barack Obama, my fears have ceased.

TIME.com: Should Rumsfeld Be the Scapegoat? -- Page 1: "The news that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is to be the Bush Administration's ritual sacrifice to atone for Iraq comes as no surprise. It had been obvious for months now that the debacle would be blamed on Rumsfeld. And the blame-Rumsfeld narrative has a singular attraction for all those who supported the Iraq war and now wish to evade their own culpability in the catastrophe it inevitably became."
