This is beginning to look like a well orchestrated hit by the hawks. Kristol will argue that WMDs were never the issue, and it was Bush's fault for justifying the war on irrelevant claims of WMDs.

Mr.Pink, I don't think there will be much choice but to see Rummy removed, as you say, to 'spend more time with his family.'

In fairness to Kristol, WMD was never his main concern (though he cynically used the argument as a scare tactic). Kristol is a consisent supporter of war. He backed the Kosovo escapade (and even threatened to defect ro the democrats because of GOP peaceniks) and now he supports this war. His concerns were "national greatness," creating a counterweight to Saudi Arabia, and taking the heat off Israel.

Agreed, and I'm sure you're every bit as shocked as I am by their collective duplicity on display, and right at the time the "road map" comes into play. Wow!, who'da' thunk it? ;o)

LOL...the families of lots of DOD policy wonks need some quality time directed their way.

So now that the neos are throwing another Bush overboard, who do you think they'll align themselves with....Kerry, Sloppy Joe, or Hillary?
