Oh, Ken! ... Kick One for the Gipper!
This is delicious.0 comments
Just a couple of minutes ago, Ken Duberstein, the former Chief of Staff during the Ronald Reagan administration was gigging as a talking head on Wolf Blitzer's CNN show, along with Leon Panetta, WH Chief of Staff under Bill Clinton.
In trying to explain what George W. Bush needs to say on foreign policy in his State of the Union speech later tonight, poor ol' Duberstein got a bit tangled up and blurted out this bon mot while trying to right himself:
"...The president has to show where he wants to lead—not only the free world—but the United States, as well."
That disconnect is the clearest picture, to date, of the Republican plan for civil liberties in this country.
Thank you, Ken, for clarifying things for us.
