Looking Past Bush

We all are.

Please, God, make him leave with out doing any more damage.

"Assad looks past US for talks with Israel

PARIS - Syrian President Bashar Assad has told a French newspaper his country is unlikely to enter direct peace talks with Israel while President Bush is in office. However, Assad said he was betting that the next US leader would get more involved in the peace process. In the interview published on the website of Le Figaro yesterday, Assad said Syria and Israel were looking for common ground to start face-to-face negotiations, adding that it was vital to find the right country to mediate. "Frankly, we do not think that the current American administration is capable of making peace," Assad said. "It doesn't have either the will or the vision, and it only has a few months left.

Can't disagree with that.
