Picture of the Day - 3 - Kremlin Watching

So, who looks like they got what they wanted out of today's meeting? Looks to me like Condi and Peter Pace took the beating. (Pace out of uniform?)

  • Watching the video of the nothing statement, Condi hangs her head and looks at the ground at several key points.

    I think we all know what the plan is going to be.

  • Yeah. The only one who looks really comfortable is Cheney.

  • Of course all these meetings are just political games to work up a PR campaign to sell an idea that was made a) the day after the Dems won the midterms or b) the day Uncle Jim Baker gave Jr. the bitch-slap known as the ISG Report.

    The other thing that bothers me is Bush attitude that the fate of the universe revolves around him and him alone. That everyone, including congress and the American public, needs to defer to him as the Great and Omnipotent Decider... and the press seems to lap it up.

    I really hope the new congress vigorously exercises it's power in matters of foreign and domestic policy.

  • Yeah, this delay has very significantly allowed them to alter the debate. If they had tried to spring a surge the day after the ISG, they would have been pilloried. Now, by introducing the idea slowly and indirectly, they're going to get away with it.
