If you click here, you will see an article that appeared in Rolling Stone magazine in March of this year about the Iraq War. Rolling Stone did something that the Bush Administration failed to do before it got us involved in this disaster. It assembled a independent panel of experts and asked them what they thought was happening in Iraq. Their conclusion? The war in Iraq is already lost and the only question is how big a mess will it turn out to be.
One of these experts is a retired General who served on the Joint Chief of Staffs during the first Gulf War. He is Thomas McPeak. This is a quote from the article: "Iran's influence will have been increased geometrically. We're already the losers in this, and now we become the big-time losers."
So if you hear some right-wing blowhard condemning Harry Reid for telling the President the truth about Iraq, ask him or her to explain McPeak's analysis in Rolling Stone magazine. Oh, yes, and also ask them how many relatives they have serving in Iraq.
