Live long enough, and you get to have diverse experiences. Today I get to defend the head of the CIA for telling the truth.
CIA director Leon Panetta is catching some flak on the Intertubes for telling Voice of America that even if suspect ballots are discounted, President Hamid Karzai will in all likelihood win re-election. But if you look at the numbers for 15 seconds, it's clear that Panetta is simply stating the obvious. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2009/9/19/784221/-On-Afghan-Election,-Panetta-is-Simply-Stating-the-Obvious http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/node/340 -- Robert Naiman Just Foreign Policy www.justforeignpolicy.org [email protected] Senator Feingold Calls for Timetable for U.S. Troop Withdrawal from Afghanistan http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/act/exit-afghanistan _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
