QUOTE
Gates has sharply criticized the Bush administration's handling of the Iraq war and has made clear that he would seek advice from moderate Republicans who have been largely frozen out of the White House, administration officials and Gates's close associates say.

The administration officials said that Bush was aware of Gates's critique of current policy and understood that Gates planned to clear the "E Ring" of the Pentagon, where many of Donald Rumsfeld's senior political appointees have plotted Iraq strategy.


I have to say, I'm pleasantly surprised by this. Let's see how things change in Iraq.

It is time to pull out


--------------------
A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
