In re: the worst part of war, I recall hearing an NPR report the other day on the war of 1812 with the British, when they burned Washington. The historian said this was "the worst thing" that could happen to the Americans, and if the Brits had pressed their advantage, they would surely have won. But somehow, the fort at Baltimore survived the British naval barrage, and the Brits were forced to withdraw.

I wonder what our intelligence analysts would have said before F.Scott Key had the opportunity to observe the events that inspired the "Star-Spangled Banner"?

You can hardly classify the neo-con clowns who said Iraq had WMD as 'intellegence experts' If you read what the real experts were saying it was uncertain what Iraq had. Now we know they had nothing.

So, intelligence experts who say Iraq has weapons of mass destruction are negligent, wrong, or liars promoting an agenda, but intelligence experts who say Iraq is a quagmire are unimpeachable and almost omniscient?

No, thanks. I'll take Door #3, Monty.
