Who said it?

"Iraq should be a lesson learned. We cannot ever again put American boots on the ground in a hostile Arab country. Iraq was an optional war. There will always be or there were other ways, I should say, of removing Saddam."

Bill O'Reilly.

Now there is a sentiment I never expected to see.

The New Republic blog where I got this little tidbit goes on to compare this to Walter Cronkite declaring Vietnam a stalemate. Who knew that anyone would ever be comparing O'Reilly to Cronkite? Besides to say something like, "Boy, that Bill O'Reilly is sure no Walter Cronkite."
