Certainly I've never felt that the "neocons" would be put in their place if Bush won. Quite the contrary, promoted...

Powell leaving is not a surprise. Rumsfeld or Wolfowitz or Feith leaving, would be - as I noted to Michael a number of times. Or Gonzales... and speaking of him -

I wonder how long it will take before a court, somewhere in the land, tries to get around the cute play on words that Gonzales supports as justification for avoiding the Geneva convention or more importantly the US's own War Crimes Act.

Perhaps that soldier in yesterday's video feed will be the trigger. I have to imagine that someone, some where, is trying to figure out how to get war crimes on the country's agenda.

Then, when that didn't happen, they were sure that the "neocons" would be put in their place during this second Administration.

Would you care to point out 1 (one) such post here, just for form's sake? By all indications, W wanted a war in Iraq as much as any "neocon" all along, from the day he took office if not before.
