The Pentagon has some explaining to do.
http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/editorial/outlook/2023830

This is a pretty good editorial from the Houston Chronicle that is written by a retired Air Force Colonel that spent considerable time working in the Office of the Secretary of Defense's Under Secretariat for Policy. It is a good description of how these idiots came to some of the decisions that have amazed us.
I believe the lady is right, "some folks on the Pentagon's E-ring may be sitting beside Saddam Hussein in the war crimes tribunals."

2. Unfortunately, I would be very surprised if any of these fools
ever have to explain a thing to the world. The simpering little coward has maintained that the his government is above and not subject to the World Court. I would love to see his smirking ass sitting in the dock and explaining to the world just why all these people, American and Iraqi, had to die.

5. Unfortunately you are right. Control of the Senate(by 22k votes nationally
in the 2002 elections has ensured chimpy no nasty investigations into his actions. This is truly the worst case scenario for America. The fucking world has been turned upside down, the asshole on watch for 9/11 sells himself as the answer to preventing another attack. The gop runs $500 billion in annual deficits and still uses "tax and spend" attacks on the dems. A back door entering, marginally qualified, "Champaign Unit", AWOL from a part time assignment flyer is some people's "Military Hero". The party who despises Hollywood uses imagery like carrier landings, making fat cats take off their ties and covering up a warehouse full of "Made in China" shit with Made in America signs and nobody blinks. I think WE ARE FUCKED!

4. More Inside Information from Former Officials -
We need an investigative piece (written or televised) featuring the following people, that weaves all of their respective threads of information/vantage points together. That piece would be Exhibit A in demonstrating to Americans and the world how we got to this nightmarish place.

KAREN KWIATKOWSKI

JOE WILSON

GREG THIELMAN (State Dept., director of the strategic, proliferation, and military affairs division at Bureau of Intelligence and Research left September 2002)

Can anyone name others?
