Hubris Indeed

Some important comments about the author of Imperial Hubris.

I'm telling you, you really have to wonder how many of the eager media figures who made such a point of interviewing him (his image darkened, while he was still "Anonymous,") had actually read the book, as opposed to the publicist's blurbs.

[The Kid]

Mr. Scheuer takes on Clinton, Bush, and the military leadership in a poorly edited column in today’s Washington Times. His main message is that the CIA is right and good, the commissions investigating 9/11 were wrong, and the CIA is being ripped apart by savages.

But I do like this:

In terms of risk-taking, the Clinton administration's most dicey anti-terrorism operation surely was Former National Security Adviser Samuel Berger's reputed clandestine removal of bin Laden-related documents from the National Archives in his socks and undies. Nerves of steel and a thirst for daring-do but only when party rather than republic is at risk.
