Bipartisan Group Takes Fresh Look at US Role in Iraq
http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewPolitics.asp?Page=\Politics\archive\200603\POL20060316a.html

"Lee Hamilton, a former Democratic congressman from Indiana and the former vice-chairman of The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States (9-11 Commission), will lead the new bipartisan Iraq Study Group along with Republican James Baker, who served as secretary of state for President George H. W. Bush and has close ties to the current President Bush."

"The Iraq Study Group will also include former CIA Director Robert M. Gates, former New York City Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, former Clinton White House advisor Vernon E. Jordan, Jr., former Clinton administration Chief of Staff Leon E. Panetta, former U.S. Defense Secretary William J. Perry, former Democratic U.S. Sen. Charles S. Robb of Virginia, who also co-chaired the Commission on the Intelligence Capabilities of the United States Regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction, and former Republican U.S. Sen. Alan K. Simpson of Wyoming."

"-have heard caution from varied sources about the potentially cataclysmic consequences of America withdrawing prematurely from Iraq," Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.) said

"Baker added that the Bush administration welcomes his group's effort and will cooperate by providing members of the Iraq Study Group with access to people and documents as well as travel to Iraq. 'This is a broad-gauged administration that is looking for advice and suggestions on Iraq,' Baker said."

Considering all these people are connected to past cover-ups and known criminals, what's to be expected from this group?

Anyone want to list the conflicts of interest, histories, or guess at the recommendations?

1. Oh, puleeeeze!
"Baker added that the Bush administration welcomes his group's effort and will cooperate by providing members of the Iraq Study Group with access to people and documents as well as travel to Iraq."

Yeah, a one-way ticket to downtown Baghdad, bullet-proof vests and bodyguards not included.

"This is a broad-gauged administration that is looking for advice and suggestions on Iraq," Baker said.

To which I say: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
