The really smart, serious, credible Iraq experts O'Hanlon and Pollack

Like most liberal "war hawks," the Brookings "scholars" falsely pretend that they were critics of the Iraq strategy to save their own reputations.

    My test for pure idiocy is missle defense

    I followed the links to Brookings to see if O'Hanlon was as bad as you make him seem. The first hit was some truly dimwitted congressional testimony. The second was even worse : He put his name on a book advocating a limited missile shield.

    While advocating war in Iraq & then pretending not to have should disqualify you from ever talking about war and peace again, pushing that insane boondoogle should result in 10 years in a clown nose & "Kick Me" sign.
