7. "There's virtually no one . . ."
See, by saying that, Feingold was saying that practically none of the people interviewed by the Iraq Study Group had a vision for a different strategy. He's not saying that none of them didn't articulate that; he's saying that virtually no one said that.

And his point at the end of it is that of the very few voices making proposals for a different approach, not one of them made a dime's worth of difference in the report's conclusions. Do you have evidence that Kerry's opinion (and remember, he voted for the war before he voted against it) held any sway whatsoever with the ISG or its reported findings? Because if they interviewed Kerry and then totally disregarded what he had to say, then it would appear that Feingold is right, and hardly playing politics. Unless this is another one of those famous examples of the facts having that dreaded liberal bias.
