It sounds like Broder is saying that presidents orchestrating wars is
_normal_ (i.e., it's not just something that Bush #2 would do). That
opinion is pretty common on the left, but when someone like the "Dean"
(or is it the Bursar?) of the Washington Press says it, that indicates
a rare willingness to express power-elite cynicism.[*]
