The brain has turned on?

Headline from today's New York Times:

Bush's Realization on Iran: No Good Choice Left Except Talks

Then, in graph 2, we get this:

"...it became obvious to Mr. Bush that he could not hope to hold together a fractious coalition of nations to enforce sanctions--or consider military strikes on Iranian nuclear sites--unless he first showed a willingness to engage Iran's leadership directly over its nuclear program and exhaust every nonmilitary option."

No f***ing shit. Good morning, Sherlock. Glad you could join the real world today. Did this inspiration hit you at 3 in the morning while you were tossing and turning over the crap of a war you got us into in Iraq or did the Vice President send you a note recommending this during study hall?

But wait. If you read on, you'll find out that Cheney was "dead set against it." "It" being engagement. Why? Because we must go to war with everyone we don't like, that's why. D'uh.
