President Bush is trying to create a legacy, not mired in the Iraq mess, with an attempt to broker a peace settlement between Israel and the Palestinian states. The problem is Bush, unlike Clinton, has zero political capital to spend. He only made it worse when he flub the photo-op where he mispronounced both names and then had to be told what would be a better photo-op. The Bush administration has only made the region more dangerous.
This joke of an attempt at a peace settlement was only made more laughable when Bush invited Syria to the table. Remember when Nancy Pelosi was criticized for visiting Syria? The argument was that she was legitimizing this terrorist nation. What is Bush doing by inviting them in an attempt to garner peace between Israel and Palestine? This lame attempt to broker peace is not the miracle to get this lame duck walking or quacking.
