Three years later, 'progress' replaces 'victory'
If either president Bush had foreseen the outcomes, would each have
invaded Iraq?
By Daniel Schorr
WASHINGTON --
"There's evidence of real progress," says President Bush.
"We continue to make great progress," echoes Gen. George Casey.
"We are in a civil war," says former Prime Minister Iyad Allawi.
Three years after the launching of the Iraq invasion, you can play it
upbeat or downbeat, depending on whether you consider 2,300 American
lives and some 35,000 Iraqi lives as necessary losses on the road to
democracy - never mind the multibillion-dollar financial cost.

And what is his definition of progress?
