This book by Clarke is the second one written by a Republican insider in what, six months.
First there was Paul O'neal, the former Secretary of the Treasurery, now there is Clarke.
O'neal was in cabinet, period and painted the picture that W is essentially the moron that many have been stating he is for years. What was it that O'neal said, "it was the blind leading the deaf" or something like that.
And the fact that O'neal said that there was a Saddam fixation right from day 1.
Clarke, who comes at it from a Security point of view basically says the same thing.
Obviously, when you get two different guys saying the same thing, there is something there.
I can never remember EVER a time where guys in the inner circle broke ranks in such a way. It's unheard of. This alone indicates there are very serious problems within the current Bush Administration.
The guy I would love to hang out a bar and get drunk with would be Colin Powell. I would love to know what he candidly thinks of the whole situation.
