“The whole thing sucks. It was wrong from the start, and it is getting wronger by the hour.”

"Love in a Time of War" (31 March 2003)
2000s
Context: It is hard to ignore the prima facie dumbness that got us bogged down in this nasty war in the first place. This is not going to be like Daddy's War, old sport. He actually won, and he still got run out of the White House nine months later... The whole thing sucks. It was wrong from the start, and it is getting wronger by the hour.
