Scathing Scowcroft Article

The article in the post mentioned below is only available in its entirety in the New Yorker magazine. But this post from Scott Clemons lays out the juicy bits. There was a time when I'd read something like this and feel relief that an 'insider' was coming clean about the incompetence of the People In Charge. Now however, I just feel drained. It's painful to read that people who May Actually Know Something have been so carelessly tossed aside in favor of blind idealism to their cause. We're surrounded by dumbfuckery.
