my $.02 – I thought eCAHN’s questions were aggressive, pointed (barbed?) – but in the end it made no difference because General Clark pretty much avoided answering any questions of substance. When he did come close to touching one, it was with banalities and meaningless cliches.

Lots of good, hard, intelligent questions asked yesterday – and I, for one, was extremely disappointed in both the ‘quality’ and lack of the responses. ymmv.

It’s MoDo, Friedman and Rich in the NYT today. MoDo is sharpening her claws on Democrats again. She says that if voting for Barack Obama is a roll of the dice, as Bill Clinton suggests, voting for Billary is a sure bet: an endless soap opera. Mr. Friedman is writing from Jakarta and says that we may be the first generation in human history that literally has to act like Noah — to save the last pairs of a wide range of species that are threatened with extinction. Mr. Rich says that no matter how much Hillary Clinton, John McCain or Rudy Giuliani brag about being tested and vetted, it’s not experience that will be decisive in determining the next president. </p> <p><a href="http://mgpaquin.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">http://mgpaquin.wordpress.com/</a></p> <p>The coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready, and I’ve got chocolate croissants as a treat.
