Pessimists and Naysayers?? What else can it be? Well this assesment jibes with what Kos put on the front page, and also, what all of us already have known for a long time. Anyway, I guess this is another unintended leak. Apparently not all of the turncoats at the CIA were purged a few weeks ago. I haven't seen this story- it was just put up on the NYT home page. How long can people deny reality? Last polls I saw most morons in the US supported this war. And of course, John Negroponte dissented. What can you expect from a lackey? The 'progress' spoken of in the article is illusory and meaningless. Overall though, I'm happy we got Bush again if only because Americans get the leaders they deserve :)
