That's What I Call Irony
I finally got around to reading Rumsfeld's proposals about Iraq, the memo he sent two days before resigning.
At the risk of sounding like a complete idiot, they are actually the best concrete proposals I've read for how to deal with the obviously shitty situation.

Mel is completely right. It truly is puzzling why these programs weren't at least TESTED.
For a moment I'll ignore the idiocy of the anti-war left, and just to focus on the idiocy of the war handlers - i mean, did they even want to win this thing? What were they thinking?
All this being said, I've produced several small thesis projects, worked on consulting projects, and video games with large groups of people, and almost all of them were a complete mess at times, about to crumble under the weight of a series of bad decisions. My point is, doing anything in life is really difficult and the larger thing you try to do, the more difficult. So, if it's tough for us to get together and produce a thesis film to entertain a giddy audience for 12 minutes, I'm willing to believe it is incredibly tough to secure a lawless country with sectarian strife, and transform that same country into a modern democracy as a model for an entire region to mimic.
That being said, we've all seen tons of thesis films and been angry at how bad they were and pity all the hard work and energy.
Oh well, this production ain't over. Maybe it'll come together in editing.
