They are patently too STUPID to pull off this illegal, immoral Iraq scheme. Kerry is correct.
http://www.thewashingtonnote.com/archives/000190.phpThis is going to be a neocon era. That may be a sad truth, but it is a fact.
So we should hope for smart neocons rather than dumb ones. Consider VP Cheney:
--- flunked out of Yale twice (remember this was Yale at the time when as dim a bulb as W could ern C's!)
--- finished up undergrad at Caspar College in Wyoming with a distinctly modest record
--- headed off to grad school at UW in Madison where he failed his quals in the PhD program
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1003995-3,00.htmlOn a personal level, Cheney was not always a bull-by-the-horns guy. After Cheney graduated from high school, Tom Stroock, a local oilman who was impressed by the young man, arranged his entrance and full scholarship to Yale. After four semesters, Cheney's grades were so bad, the university asked him to leave. David Nicholas, who has known Cheney since junior high school and who went to Harvard, thinks part of the problem was that the Casper schools had not prepared the boys for Ivy League academics. "We were competing with kids who went to Andover and Exeter, and they knew what it was all about," Nicholas observes. What's more, say those who knew Cheney then, he spent more time "in the bend-your-elbow club," as a former Yalie puts it, than in the library. Cheney hung out with his cohort on the freshman football team, stayed up late playing cards and drinking beer. "Dick wasn't big on studying," remembers Jacob Plotkin, one of his roommates.
