Friedman always wanted the war to be about this war of ideas..
Safire ..On telling truth about WMD. We told what we thought to be the truth..but did you ever want to hear a contrary ideas(Timmy)NO!laughter
McCain weak on privacy issues on commerce committee(Safire)
but says McCain strong elsewhere, McCain and Rice for President.
Friedman saying Iraq is too important to leave to Bush..Dems who did see importance have been ignored on troop levels,etc..Dumb for dems to sulk on side. Iraq's success too important.
Neither seems to like Rumsfeld..(I do)
MO DO is comic relief?..She certainly adds nothing else..
Sorry dude, Bush is President for another 4 years. Get used to it. If you want your views to be considered for anything, try joining Heritage Foundation after meeting their criteria.
Good Question; did you note that when Safire and Friedman discussed how they would confer to stake out positions and such, the talked over MoDo like she was a potted plant. She did have a seirsly pouty expression as this went on, so Timmy asked the question about her column on Condie's "Dominatrix" outfit reviewing the troops.
Notice she tried to blame it on the WaPost chick ...
I wonder what Friedman's take on Iraq was during the 8 years Clinton was in office? Dems sound so STUPID trying to be hawkish in hindsight. Like the kid in the lunchroom who didn't buy lunch because he thought he wouldn't like what they were serving, who then tuns around all the tables saying "You gonna eat that?"
