The collapse of Bush's foreign policy
From Turkey to Iraq to Pakistan, the mounting chaos proves the White House is just winging it.
By Juan Cole [2007-10-24]

  • Great column, Juan

    I'm amazed that it took until late 2007 for Bush's foreign policy to collapse. Between Bush, Rove, Cheney, Addington and John Bolton, there isn't one member of the reality based community. All the pragmatists and realists from the administration's foreign policy wing have resigned or been dismissed.

    I'm only being somewhat facetious when I write of non-reality based staff. These guys might actually believe the all natural fertilizer they spew. Cheney STILL says that Iraq could have WMDs.

    It took this long for reality to begin to set in. It will take much longer to clean up this mess.
