We've got five years / that's all we've got

Read Glenn Greenwald at Salon today if you have the time. Greenwald is usually superb, but the accolades this time need to go General William Odom, former director of the NSA under Reagan, who neatly demolishes the hard right rationale for staying in Iraq; and for Bush dragging us all into a global conflagration with Iran:

We could not have increased Iranian incentives for getting nuclear weapons faster, or more effectively, than the policy we've used to keep to prevent them from getting them. . . .
Sometimes you wonder how these people can be so damned stupid...
