Neat story.
Just wish for once that I could look at anything out of the MSM without wondering more about the political/policy objective of the piece than any kernel of fact it might contain.
I’m afraid that as soon as I see any reference to “neocon” in a so-called news story, my attention span drops to nanoseconds. Naming Bush as simultaneously idiot and a dark master of events cuts that by a few orders of magnitude.
Yawn.
Suppose somebody will run a real live honest-to-God news organization anytime before hell freezes over?
” wondering more about the political/policy objective of the piece than any kernel of fact it might contain. “
It does take a healthy skepticism - and a strong stomach...
Having said that, I posted the story more as a “just for fun” than as a serious ‘dot’ to be considered....
(Besides, anything that makes the State Dept look as silly as they really are is just okay in my book... ;~))
