Mission Accomplished? Third Anniversary

Keith Olbermann notes:
Monday marks the third anniversary of President Bush's jet landing on the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln and his speech declaring major fighting in Iraq over, all in front of a giant "Mission Accomplished" banner. http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1002425394

More Olbermann:
Bolten made no promises of pulling up President Bush's all-time low approval ratings, but he said he and Bush have decided they want to be more open with the media and the public.

Oh, but the kind of openness described below... not so much.Enter Colin Powell...Just back from Baghdad and eager to discuss promising developments, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice found herself knocked off message Sunday, forced to defend prewar planning and troop levels against an unlikely critic - Colin Powell, her predecessor at the State Department. For the Bush administration, it was a rare instance of an in-house dissenter going public. On Rice's mind was the political breakthrough that took her and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to Iraq last week and cleared the way for formation of a national unity government. Yet Powell sideswiped her by revisiting the question of whether the U.S. had a large enough force to both oust Saddam Hussein and secure the peace. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/nation/3831009.html
