Robin Wright on MTP
This lady is so brilliant.
I've watched her and read her reporting ever since she turned up on c-span a few years ago.
There should be a place for her in Kerry's administration.

4. One of the guys said that Blackwell is running the war for Smirk
NOT Abizaid (sp), Bremer, Myers, or any of them. Only Blackwell. (If I heard him right)

Also said he is telling them to do whatever Brahimi want to do. Anything at all.

6. Aha! Blackwill
With him, as DEBKA-Net-Weekly 135 revealed on November 28, was Ambassador Robert D. Blackwill, deputy national security adviser to the president and Bush’s newest personal Iraq watchdog at US-led coalition administration headquarters, known as the Green Zone, in central Baghdad.

Safire......don't even know why I even bothered to listen to this dissembling creep.

Misdirection and lies.

Need another cup of coffee to get my brain in gear. :-)
