The Errington Thompson Show 12/09/06

The 2 days earlier was the anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Think about how we ramped up for that war.

Thursday was the one year anniversary of Drinking Liberally here in Asheville.

The Iraq Study Group report is delivered to the White House. President Bush looked like he just received a vial of the plaque. Both the Democrats and the Republicans have been very cautious with their praise of this report. Some neocons have called James Baker and Lee Hamilton defeat-o-crats. Does the ISG and appointing Robert Gates simple give President Bush time to delay and Stay the Course?

We have an extended version of Let’s Rewind. Donald Rumsfeld officially steps down. Rummy states that there was no more challenging time then right now. I have a little to say about this. I replay some of Rummy’s greatest hits. He has some great sayings.

I discuss these topics and more on the Errington Thompson Show.

Remember I’m on iTunes and several other podcasting services.

    The neo-cons were wrong about the war, but they are right that if we leave the world and that region will be a huge, huge mess. Iran AND Saudi Arabia will build a nuclear bomb. The Saudis will have no choice after Iran does it. But of course we have to leave because there is nothing we can really do. Democracy is dead in Iraq. And our soldiers are dying. This administration has put us in the biggest mess we may have ever encountered.
