Walter Cronkite says it's time to get out of Iraq.
He was right when he said that Vietnam was "mired in stalemate", and he's right about Iraq. The big difference is that Bush can't say, as President Johnson did, "If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost Middle America". But that's only because he never had Cronkite to begin with.
Bush won't listen to the most trusted man in America, but let's hope the American people — and their representatives in Congress — still do.
