      Holbrooke on the newshour (2/18/2009) was pitching the adopted party line swill. The M-I oligarchy has and is winning once again. The practiced propaganda is insuring by default an ipso facto continuation of the policy of yet another protracted stupid, mindless, and unnecessary killing - ours and theirs. The same sort of culture that would create a world financial crisis - solely for the soulless pieces of eight.

      Venality, greed and profit still trumping common sense.

      Where are the statesmen? Where are the adults?

      How interesting to hear these two men with the benefit of hindsight. Seems most of what Richard thought would happen in the future was 90% wrong. He absolutely was convinced that more troops would be impossible because the US didnt have them and the American people wouldnt allow it. And in either case it would make no difference. WRONG ON BOTH COUNTS. And Bill was right on the money. It gave me a better appreciation and respect for Bill Kristol.
