Iraq nixes reconciliation.

You wanna know how far they are off the Bush reservation?

Quote

Iraqi leaders argue that sectarian animosity is entrenched in the structure of their government. Instead of reconciliation, they now stress alternative and perhaps more attainable goals: streamlining the government bureaucracy, placing experienced technocrats in positions of authority and improving the dismal record of providing basic services.

??? Experienced technocrats? Providing basic services? If they ever figure out how to do that maybe they'll tell Bush.

No heck of a job Brownies or Abdul Gonzales's for them.
