Not That I Expected Different…
By Mitch Berg
…but Matt Lauer, “interviewing” Hillary! Clinton, seems to be feeding the former First Lady her answers re her recent trip to Iraq.
I’d hope that her big idea – a “phased retreat”, first from Baghdad (!), then from the rest of the country – is her own, since it’s pure madness.
And I had to wonder who it is that briefs Clinton on these things; she said “we’ll need two new battalions in Afghanistan – why should those two battalions be in Iraq”. Of course, “two battalions” is about 1,500 troops. Is she merely parroting information from people who don’t understand the field very well (likely, given the Clinton Adminstration’s history), or does she just think the American people won’t know the difference?

Ah, Doug’s playing “Who Can Be The Non-est Sequitur!” I wanna play!
“There are no bones in ice cream”!
Do I win?
No?
Damn. Doug finally found something he does better than me.

he’s generally kicked you around the corner on facts,
He must have been around the corner when he kicked me, because it didn’t happen on my side of the block.
I have owned him, pummelled him, and were I not such a swell guy would have humiliated him on nearly every contention we’ve had.
But I AM a swell guy.
