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."

Go on, guess. Don't look behind the cut until you have.


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."

Al Franken said something similar about O'Reilly in one of his books. "Lying Liars" maybe? And I could see that, from what I know of him. But as long as he is tied to the yoke of FOX, I will have a hard time seeing him as a potential ally.
