You've probably seen excerpts of, and commentary on, Sen. Gordon Smith's speech yesterday. If you haven't, here's a summary: Smith is a Republican from Oregon, usually characterized as a moderate. He voted for the Iraq War and has since had little else to say on the matter. He gave a surprise speech yesterday on the floor of the Senate, criticizing the Bush Administration's clinging to the status quo. The NY Times has an article covering the speech and giving some reactions from other senators. (Thanks, KK.)
This is an instance where it's probably worth going to the source. TPM Muckraker has the full transcript, as well as a link to the video of the speech.
