THE profound quality of the suggestions offered by the Iraq Study Group - the panel headed by former Secretary of State James Baker that presented its report with such fanfare to the president yesterday morning - can be inferred from the following passage on page 60:
"RECOMMENDATION 19: The President and the leadership of his national security team should remain in close and frequent contact with the Iraqi leadership."
Truly, a grateful nation should fall on its knees and thank the benevolent Creator that the nine wise men and one woman who comprise the Iraq Study Group were willing to sacrifice themselves and come together so that such a recommendation could be placed before our leaders and the world.
The nation's capital hasn't seen such concentrated wisdom in one place since Paris Hilton dined alone at the Hooters on Connecticut Avenue.
After all, only genius approaching the level of Paris could have written this sentence: "The Support Group should consist of Iraq and all the states bordering Iraq . . . and, of course, Iraq itself."
Yes, that's some Support Group, what with Iraq and Iraq in it together to support, um, Iraq.
Also in the Support Group: Iran and Syria. Yes, having done their best to destroy the new Iraq, these two tyrannical nations are poised to perform a very, very constructive role in helping to get the new Iraq up on its own two footsies!

I used that argument on some of the libs (all Catholics) I work with, and they were speechless when I told them that none of the members had ever been in the military.
After I blew their minds with that analogy, I added this little quip.
Another way to explain that "study group" is Apple wanting to fix some Microsoft flaws, and get five hillbillies and five rednecks who had never used a computer to fix the OS.
So a million dollars of MY TAX MONEY essentially funded the "United States Institute for Peace", allowing them to set up a nice web site and put together a non-profit organization that will now probably lobby for government grants and certainly will support left-leaning causes and undermine the United States whenever it can.
Thanks, Frank Wolf.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
The Iraq Senility Group has spoken.
You are correct. Political assassinations are required. We can win that game and the results would be substantial.
Adopting the pathology of the enemy is in vogue these days, even on FR.
I just posted on another thread, what happens when the Dems and Baker Commission's ideas become so ludicrous that they get laughed out the door?
The nation's capital hasn't seen such concentrated wisdom in one place since Paris Hilton dined alone at the Hooters on Connecticut Avenue.Perhaps they're just amazed at a word that has a Q and no U and so they feel a sort of obsessive need to repeat it.After all, only genius approaching the level of Paris could have written this sentence: "The Support Group should consist of Iraq and all the states bordering Iraq . . . and, of course, Iraq itself."
A sardonic delight.
NOW will the Bushies have the sense and the cojones to pick up on all these criticisms and break this report down with their own analysis.
This report smacks more of sophomoric platitudes and fervent prayers than any real roadmap for either victory or surrender.
Send those guys back to their rocking chairs and Geritol
I'm sure even Paris Hilton would be ashamed to have her name associated with this piece of empty political porn. That alone would put her way ahead of the "geniuses" who authored it, not to mention the MSM "geniuses" who promote it.
This report is nothing more than a ticket to the A-list Beltway cocktail parties and Sunday talk shows for its authors for the next two years. Hey, they had to choose between offering a serious analysis with ideas on how to win this war, and having Tim Russert drool all over them on MTP. It's all about priorities!
<< Well .. Wolf got Congress to appropriate $1 million for the project >>
And (the well-documented antisemite) Baker's firm is, to the tune of Millions, retained by the house of Saud.
The nation's capital hasn't seen such concentrated wisdom in one place since Paris Hilton dined alone at the Hooters on Connecticut Avenue.That one line made the whole column.
