another timely tome from kevin phillips.
I can't find a complete transcript anywhere, but in yesterday's Senate Foreign Affairs hearing with the General and the Ambassador, one senator nailed it with his framing. Might have been Feingold, but I didn't recognize the voice. He turned around the opening statement of the shill general, something along the lines of "a struggle for power and resources among sectarian and ethnic factions". Is this something America should be sending it's children to die for? And he wouldn't let them squirm away, using specifics to put the question right back in front of them when they tried to dodge. If middle America could drop the "rag head terra-ist" image for just one moment, and see the occupation in the way that senator framed it, I think they might, you know, think.
Given the roots of this program, one would have to call this lapse ... um ... what's the word? ... ironic?

Newshoggers have a new address. Even though Dave had them in the sidebar already I just recently found them (note to self: check out Dave's links more thoroughly.) Can we update that one? They seem to have some really good Iraq insight.
