So Mr. Bush thinks that "there's no justification" for the beheading of Nicholas Berg? That has to be the most painfully obvious statement ever made. But until some clear, decisive action is taken in response, I hold Bush in part responsible — not because we have treated the enemy in Iraq too poorly, but rather because we have treated them too well.

I have heard the vows that those responsible will be "hunted down and brought to justice" before, and I no longer believe it.

Unless the situation changes dramatically, President Bush will have failed to prove that he will do a better job of protecting American lives than John Kerry.
