Col. Lounsbury whacks the idiots in the CPA, ruthlessly criticizing their utter failure from the perspective of a businessman in Baghdad trying to work with them. After reading Lounsbury’s scathing commentary, you’ll really appreciate this delicious skewering of Ari Fleischer’s brother Michael by Andrew Zajac of the Chicago Tribune. (credit to digby for spotting it.)
As long as we’re discussing ignorant neocons, don’t miss Juan Cole’s devastating exposure of neocon idiocy:
Mr. Carney, Mr. Lehman, journalist Stephen Hayes, Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith, and all the other persons who gave a moment’s thought to the idea that these two are the same person, based on these names, have wasted precious moments of their lives and have helped kill over 800 US servicemen, over an elementary error deriving from complete ignorance of Arabic and Arab culture.
