Rep. Putnam full of zeal for the Iraq war
takes only the icing of a Frost poem
“The best way out is always through”
in the House debating Bush’s “surge”
and leaves the cake in the oven…
The fullness of this quote is:
“He says the best way out is always through.
And I agree to that, or in so far
As that I can see no way out but through–”
Least ways for me–and then they’ll be convinced”
sorry sorry Adam Putnam, in so far as HE can not see
the “always through” does not translate
to stay the course, it means
when a person or a nation
is found to be in a quagmire
the way out is first admitting
to one’s contribution to it, then
boot by military boot – extraction!
