I even refused to proclaim a Democratic victory in the House of Representatives this past election until the actual votes were tallied. But at the request of the editors of Comment Is Free I am willing to proffer one guess about what will transpire in 2007: George Bush will dig a deeper hole in Iraq.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t()<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bbAbsent unforeseen events which have a habit of occurring Iraq will remain the central issue in 2007. I hate to be a doomsayer, but the situation in Iraq could well get uglier. And the debate within the US itself could get sharper and louder, with no resolution. And that brings me to this unhappy forecast: next year’s prediction might essentially be the same as this one.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tIl faut tout de m\u00eame relever combien l’abattement semble d\u00e9sormais frapper les commentateurs, devant une situation qui, \u00e0 Washington bien autant qu’\u00e0 Bagdad, ne semble pouvoir que s’enliser encore et encore, deeper and deeper<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tDavid Corn a d’habitude la dent dure. Il ne se prive pas d’aller au cur de la mati\u00e8re qu’il veut critiquer, de l’attaquer avec une rage pol\u00e9mique. D\u00e9sormais, la dent dure ne trouve que mollesse et charpie fuyante, et nulle part o\u00f9 se planter. La pol\u00e9mique le c\u00e8de \u00e0 la lassitude, \u00e0 l’ironie encore grin\u00e7ante mais surtout \u00e9puis\u00e9e. L’exclamation, la fureur devant le spectacle de l’incomp\u00e9tence et de l’impuissance g\u00e9n\u00e9rales, le c\u00e8dent au fatalisme. 2007 nous verra donc nous enfoncer encore et encore, en attendant 2008, encore et encore \u00abBush will kick the can down the road, leaving it to the next president to deal with the mess wrought by GWB.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
