Richard Lugar - coward

The news outlets have turned the spotlight on Richard Lugar lately. The Republican senator from Indiana has finally seen the light and realized what a bumbling mistake it was to allow a village idiot to try to run a war.
Senator Lugar's speech and action have been called courageous by some.
The Gadfly has another word for it - cowardly.
If it is in any way courageous to stand up against an obstinate commander-in-chief who has drawn our country into a lost cause war that has emboldened terrorists in the middle east and throughout the world, this begs a further question. Where was Lugar's speech hiding the last 4 years?!
Senator Lugar is nothing but a coward, finally seeing the light after enabling the worst president in US history.
Senator Lugar, you are too late. You are 3,500 US military casualties and tens of thousands of injured and traumatized soldiers too late.
You are $500 billion dollars too late. You are 4 years too late with your rhetoric.
If you had stood in the moment of decision in the vote to authorize the war in Iraq in 2001 and given a speech critical of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, George Tenent, Colin Powell and all the other liars who drug our country into an unnecessary war, then you would have been courageous.
Your speech at this point is like a death row inmate finding Jesus - too little, too late.
Too bad our country didn't have the right leadership when it counted. Now, we're just picking up the bodies of the train wreck that is US foreign policy under GW Bush.
