Don't disagree with what you have said either. Think one flaw is that Kerry may have been be too trusting, but no pol is perfect.

Didn't know much about Will Pitt accept he hangs around DU, but that is interesting what he and the author Pierce have written about Kerry and Hagel. As for Reid, meh; though it would have been nice to repeal it so they can all accomplish more for the good of the country and world. Pre-Iraq (all the post 9/11 era) was one of the dark periods in American history.

Peace.
