Deal Or War?

Written by David Frum on Wednesday March 18, 2009

My column in the current issue of The Week:

President Bush discovered in 2005 that he could not push through Social Security or immigration reform without persuading the country first. And he discovered in 2005 and 2006 the horrible political costs of having taken the country to war without a full and open debate and a broad political consensus.

If the Obama administration repeats those mistakes, they will repeat the consequences.
