During the Power Point presentation the presenter (apparently an Ann Coulter clone) said Washington should declare the Saudis the enemy, he said, and threaten to take over the oil wells if the kingdom doesn't do more to combat Islamic terrorism. "I thought the briefing was ridiculous," a board member said, "a waste of time, and the quicker he left the better." When the briefing leaked to the press, it sent diplomatic tremors ricocheting to Riyadh.

Disecting a stupid article. Talking head Mark Thompson has no ability, brains to attack the words and reasoning of very wise and articulate Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. So for the stupid vacant liberal minded lefty loons with a dependency on FUD he creates the specter a secret conspiracy. From the article it seems that Mark knows who all the members of the "Council" are. So who are the boggy men that cause the incredibly stupid to shake and shiver about. LOL Rumsfeld has given some of the Republican right's most outspoken (and forsaken) hawks a place to nest. Among them: former Vice President Dan Quayle, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and ex-CIA and Pentagon boss James Schlesinger. ROTFLOL scott are you quaking at thought of it yet oh the dumb article... originally posted by scott. time.com
