The Bush administration is developing plans to "internationalise" the Iraq crisis, including an expanded role for the United Nations, as a way of reducing overall US responsibility for Iraq's future and limiting domestic political fallout from the war as the 2008 election season approaches....
"The blame game has already begun. The Democrats want to run against a 'chaos in Iraq' scenario. The Republicans will want to keep extending it [the surge] past next February. The White House may offer a schedule for a drawdown - but what does that really mean?... The only policy Republicans have is a policy of delaying the inevitable."
AND putting the blame anywhere but where it belongs - Czar George! Pursuing U.N. participation could help him try to clear his name and the Republicans who supported him.
The problem? He originally rejected all of the possible points being brought up with this plan. He thinks that he will be able to avoid blame. It's typical behaviour for an alcoholic, especially when recovery is not complete.
