Powell to Bush: Admit it. Iraq is a civil war

Colin Powell is still on his quest for redemption. He's saying Iraq is a civil war and Bush needs do deal with that reality. Think Progress has the video.

Too bad Powell wasn't so honest and forthright in 2002 and early 2003.

It's just one bad thing after another for Bush today on Iraq. From this Powell slam to the major dis' by al-Maliki to al-Sadr's followers quitting the government. That's not even counting the all the violence. It just feels the whole debacle is crashing down around him. Bush went to Jordan to show he's in control. Instead, he's looking weak -- really, really weak.
