    Mike Allen and Hugh Hewitt

    Glenn Greenwald shows us almost everyday why he is such a terrific reporter. Here he tells us that Mike Allen with Politico in an interview with Hugh Hewitt that O'Hanlon and Pollack of(the surge is working and things are going swimmingly, that the military organized the pairs tour and they even got a chance to interview General Patraeus to boot. Wow, thats independence for you. It's almost as special as Senators McCain and Graham's Iraq tour a couple of months ago. We all know how well that went for Presidential candidate McCain.
