Re: Some Certain White House Staffers
Lots of flak hitting the White House lately.0 comments
First, former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill. Now, the Army War College is taking their shots.
Cheeez...What's next? All this uncertainty is unnerving.
This mess may just force a grumpy-but-certain Shadow President Dick Cheney out of his cave! And it's not even spring fund-raising season yet...
The War College asserts the White House may have set faulty assumptions into concrete, at our peril:
U.S. Army War College: Building America's Fortress on Quicksand?
The Army War College has a great deal to teach the ideologues in the White House, and their lackeys in Congress.
As this WC article asserts, there are no guarantees or certainties: in life, let alone in warfare.
The true danger posed by those positioned around George W. Bush is their extreme certainty.
And, as the victims of 9/11, thousands of dead Iraqis and hundreds upon hundreds of dead American soldiers will attest, "certainty" is the most uncertain thing of all.
