The administration should embrace both ideas.

For example, the administration is embracing a recommendation that it put energy into reviving Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.

Brazilian administrations in the last 40 years had either proved powerless to fight inflation or embraced it to kindle growth, or at times its illusion.

Domestically, his administration generally embraced policies that transferred power from Washington to the states.

Publicly, White House officials have said that the administration will embrace the report.

The fact that the administration embraced their encouragement to go to war but apparently discounted their warnings is an insight into the Pentagon's prewar planning.

The Bush policy is vague about exactly what changes the administration will embrace on projects involving the construction of oil and gas pipelines, hydroelectric and nuclear plants.

None of which this administration has yet embraced or truly pushed for.

The real story is simpler: the Bush doctrine has collapsed, and the administration has consequently embraced realism, American foreign policy's perennial hangover cure.

And unfortunately, again I regret this administration has not seized them and embraced them.
