This is all Drudge has for now.

Drudge is behind the curve on this story, something that's not unusual for him. This was reported over the holiday weekend, and mentioned on the "Day in the life of..." thread on New Year's Day. Look here in the Week Ahead section: freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1550392/posts

Not sure this matters much. No if Bush announced he was holding a Town Hall meeting with all former secretaries of state - then I would be a tad more concerned.

Interesting... This is just breaking, right?

No. It was published over the holiday weekend. Drudge is just getting the news late.

"Does Drudge think that Bush has invited the Department of Redundancy Department? (Motto: We do it twice, or we don't do it.)"


superfluous, repetitious and redundant.

Most of the folks will be enemies of Bush I would presume, so why are they doing this?

maybe Bush trusts the american people and rather than continue giving cover to the leftists sniping at him he wishes to simply bring them out into the light so that they may be seen for what they really are -moonbats and leftist kerryesque bufoons...

It is quite interesting stategery... They can either paly or shut up AND if playing they can either agree with Bush or disagree and show themselves and thier partisan BS...

Madeleine Albright

UGH.

That would appear to me to be 2 stikes already. Who are the counter balances to those two?

A blast from the past on the series called CLINTON AND THE MILITARY. It really would be fun to hear Warren Christopher's view.

A Warren Christopher story that no one should every forget. This was written by Lt. Col. Tom McKenney (Ret) for the CLINTON CHRONICLES BOOK in his chapter --- THE UNTHINKABLE COMMANDER IN CHIEF. I had the great pleasure to do an interview with the colonel on the DFU RADIO HOUR.
================================================

It is significant that the man Clinton turns to for military advice ---who argued against the tanks and APC's for the raid in Mogadishu---is the same Warren Christopher (then a high official in Jimmy Carter's National Security Council) who helped plan the disastrous raid to rescue the hostages in Iran.

At a planning session for the Tehran rescue, the man selected to lead the raid, the late Colonel Charlie Beckwith, was asked what the would do about the Iranian guards. Bechwith, a no-nonsense veteran of special operations, replied that as they came out the door they would be shot in the head---twice---to be sure they couldn't do any harm.

Warren Christopher gasped, grimaced, viscerally shocked, and asked, "Couldn't you just shoot them in the hand?"

Had Charlie Beckwith been allowed to plan the Iranian raid as it should have been done and left alone to carry it out, it would have succeeded.

Concerning the Mogadishu disaster, Beckwith wrote in The Wall Street Journal that the raid was bungled by committing the Rangers and Delta Force without giving them the freedom and the support they needed.
