Warner: Iraq `drifting sideways'

"Sen. John Warner, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, offered his bleakest public assessment of the war in Iraq on Thursday after returning from a daylong tour of the country.

"While continuing to support the U.S. mission and counseling patience, the Virginia Republican said security had deteriorated in key regions and the Iraqi government has yet to assert control.

"'It seems to me the situation is simply drifting sideways,' Warner told reporters after completing his eighth trip to Iraq. 'It was a markedly different trip from ones before. We just did not have the freedom and ability to travel where I have been before.'"
