Broken-faith–based initiative: Sen. Edward Kennedy in a speech today said the Bush administration is "breathtakingly arrogant" and that they're convinced "they know what is in America's interest, but they refuse to debate it honestly." He added that the administration "has broken faith with the American people, aided and abetted by a congressional majority willing to pursue ideology at any price, even the price of distorting the truth... We knocked al Qaeda down in the war in Afghanistan, but we let it regroup by going to war in Iraq... War in Iraq was a war of choice, not a war of necessity. It was a product they were methodically rolling out."
