I inquired, Who's them? ''All the senior Iraqis. They're poison. They are absolutely poison.'' >>I asked, But isn't that what Bush wants to do? ''Bush isn't smart enough,'' he said. ''There are only a handful of people that are smart enough to do this'' -- Ritter himself among them. >>But in mid-harangue, his peaceable side resurfaced.

"Interesting" you say? "Slightly unhinged" would be my choice of words. He alone knows what to do, Bush is too stupid? He has a private line to the true meaning of the Constitution?
