Yeah. But it's not just cheap entertainment, though I have been enjoying it 
too. Comrade Naiman here thinks that it makes a lot of difference whether Chuck 
Hagel got confirmed or not. We skeptics think that the same old shit would 
continue to be reproduced regardless of who got the post at the war ministry. 
Anyone who thinks that there are structural features of U.S. foreign policy 
bigger than any of the characters who personify it gets denounced as an 
ultraleftist who is more doctrinally rigid than an orthodox Roman Catholic. It 
is funny to see how one dimensional liberals become when they play the 
Washington game.
