GOP Sen. Graham Says Iraq Is 'on the Verge of Chaos, and the Current Plan Is not Working'

Hard to know what to make of Sen. Graham. Every now and then he seems to grow a spine but it invariably whithers after a few days — probably after a heated phone call from Karl Rove:

“We’re on the verge of chaos, and the current plan is not working,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in an Associated Press interview. U.S. and Iraqi officials should be held accountable for the lack of progress, said Graham, a Republican who is a frequent critic of the administration’s policies.

Asked who in particular should be held accountable – Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, perhaps, or the generals leading the war – Graham said: “All of them. It’s their job to come up with a game plan” to end the violence.
