Well, actually we went to war again in 1812....

But the U.K is a damn good friend in a world where we have fewer good friends than we used to have.

The State Department and CIA have been waging war against the Bush Administration from Day One.

Make him ambassador to Equatorial Guinea or somewhere equally obscure, where no one is around to record anything he says.

We know very little about him, right now. Perhaps we'll learn more about him soon.

Thank you, America.

Thank you for inventing the chip. Please don't be offended if we eat them with catsup.

Here's an interesting bit from a lecture he gave -

We can see today that China is under strong pressure to take clear positions on a number of key international issues. Iran is becoming a test case for China’s world role. Both the United States and Iran seek Chinese support in the debate over Iran’s nuclear program. I do not intend to lecture you on what China’s position should be, but I will say that I do not think the Chinese position on this key issue is very clear. I suspect that China’s position is not clear to the world, because the Chinese leadership has not yet clearly defined its position. Lofty principles too often take the place of practical politics.[5] I think China must define its position more clearly and take a more active role on the critical issue of nuclear proliferation. We the West, we the US, need China to help with the Iran nuclear question.

When the President of Iran comes to Shanghai in two weeks, he will almost certainly remind China’s leaders that Iran has a serious security problem. They are surrounded by countries with nuclear weapons and threatened by the world’s most powerful country. “Why shouldn’t we have nuclear weapons,” he might ask, “ and who are you to tell us that we cannot have nuclear weapons? You already have them and can feel more secure.” What is China’s answer to this question? I think I have an answer, but nobody has asked me.

No, no one asked.

Regards, Ivan

Joseph Wilson was ambassador to Gabon. In fact, that's the only country he was ever ambassador to. Unfortunately, it didn't slow him down much.

Ivan, they obviously read our exchange in regards to this issue and the principals.

...and heard "Freddie" and I with the bollocks/double bollocks.

I am standing up and applauding, tho' you see it not!

Fire the stupid bastard. He isn't worth the powder it would take to blow him up.

IMHO.

Offer it to him. He'd probably resign.

I think you mean Myers, but that's some imagery your comments evoke for me.
