How to Admit You're Wrong, and Apologize

Brother Dave recently sent this quote from Dr. Tom Frame, Anglican Bishop to the Australian Defense Force:
As the only Anglican bishop to have publicly endorsed the Australian government's case for war, I now concede that Iraq did not possess weapons of mass destruction .... There is no alternative to concluding that the March 2003 invasion was neither just nor necessary .... I continue to seek God's forgiveness for my complicity in creating a world in which this sort of action was ever considered by anyone to be necessary.
The complete statement is available here, and it is worth reading. No doubt certain infernal regions will freeze over before our current Chickenhawk-in-Chief will utter similar words.
