Former Reagan/Bush Officials Condemn Bush Foreign Policy

The statement, which will be released Wednesday, was signed by 20 former U.S. ambassadors, including William Harrop, who was appointed ambassador to Israel by former President George Bush in 1991.

""We just came to agreement that this administration was really endangering the United States," William Harrop said.

Military commanders who signed the document include retired Marine General Joseph P. Hoar, commander in chief of U.S. Central Command over-seeing the Middle East in 1991; and retired Admiral William Crowe Jr., chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 1985-89.

They aren't the first to attack to "Bush the lesser" on his Iraq policy. Even several of Bush Sr's advisors were opposing the Iraq policy before the war even started. For the matter, I think several of his own advisors were divided on the issue.

See my tribute to the beautiful members of Congress who voted against giving Bush warpowers. There were actually quite a few of them:
