Keith Olbermann On Bush's "(In)Credibility" As Commander in Chief

Courtesy of John Amato at Crooks & Liars (snow on my satellite - and no, this is NOT a euphemism for maturity - kept me from Countdown on MSNBC tonight):

Keith: We would be greeted as liberators, with flowers. As they stood up–we would stand down, we would stay the course, we were never 'stay the course',The enemy was al Qaeda, was foreigners, terrorists, Baathists. The war would pay for itself, it would cost 1-point-7 billion dollars, 100 billion, 400 billion, half a trillion dollars.

And after all of that, today it is his credibility versus that of generals, diplomats, allies, Republicans, Democrats, the Iraq Study Group, past presidents, voters last November, and the majority of the American people.
