Debate Question
Dan Froomkin, author of the the Washington Post’s White House Briefing, is soliciting suggestions for the presidential debates, for one or other candidate, at NiemanWatchdog.org.
My question: Mr. President, before the Iraq War, you named Jay Garner as the postwar civilian administrator of the country. According to an interview he gave earlier this year1, […]
Sy Hersch
Salon interviews Sy Hersch.
This is a dynamite must-read.
Is there someone who is the Henry Kissinger in this administration?
Oh, believe me, I pray for one [clasps his hands and looks beseechingly upward]. Wouldn’t it be great if the reality was that they were lying about WMD, and they really didn’t believe that democracy would come when […]
