<<...I really can't understand his present role; I've never seen anything like it. I mean, he is constantly saying absolutely outrageously radical things--stuff that creates real heartburn abroad--and is generally considered to be expressing the true thoughts of key administration players. Yet the administration doesn't, in fact, seem to agree with everything he says, and must at times be driven to distraction by his shenanigans. And yet he is never disciplined or repudiated. It's truly bizarre. Almost certainly it's evidence of a deeply divided, practically dysfunctional foreign policy team, in which he's a protected favorite of Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz who feels free to bash Powell and others with immunity...>> tb: interesting comments on Richard Perle -- the guy is so radical...he scares me...Its amazing Bush allows someone like this to be a senior advisor on defense and foreign policy strategies...You can tell A LOT about a leader when you look at who's on his team (who does he really turn to for advice). regards, -s2@wecoulduseafewmoreREALISTSinWashington.com
