Imagine a meeting where Cinton or Kerry called in all former SODs
The discussion would have been lively and interesting and gone on for hours... and Colin Powell would have been an active and valued participant.

1. didn't you hear this one went on and on for about
5 minutes, but bush* said he was honored they would take the time. I bet we got us some pissed off former SOD. How much advice can you take to heart in 5 dam minutes gw.

3. I am surprised those distinguished people allowed themselves to be used as

a Prop for a photo op. Their advice was not wanted just their persons for a photo op for Bush* so he could pretend he is studying all side of the issues. We all know better but will the general public see through the charade? I doubt it. They haven't yet.

4. Dog and Pony show

I like how Albright has been ripping him on all the news shows since though. Pretty sweet.

On the positive side except maybe on Fox most of the news shows have been reporting all the details as far as the ones that would allow the viewer to understand that it was just BS spin.

7. Yes, I agree.
Some cartoonist should rename the caption that identifies them as, dog, pony, dog, pony, etc.

5. the situation is so dire, I'm sure they wanted to help (some at least)
It became clear right away, no doubt, that Shrub is beyond their help.

8. I would say that they were told they would have a meeting with the POS
and took it for granted it would be that, It wasn't. The bushco* purpose was never to listen to their views it was maybe they would go back home and write favorable op-eds for the junta. They were lied to as were we.

9. They would say somebody who did that didn't know how to lead
and had to call in people from other administrations who DID know how.
