Needs More Study
In The Paper Chase, Harvard law students join study groups to handle their classes. I never got this. Sooner or later you have to understand the ideas yourself--how will hanging out with other clueless people help?
I hope this is George Bush's attitude regarding the Baker/Hamilton Iraq Study Group. In this case, the "group," as far as I can tell, is a clueless mix of people with bad ideas about Iraq and no ideas about Iraq. The only thing they all seem to agree upon is teaching our enemies a lesson--that they've won.
The American people want change. Fine, give it to them, but it's a wise leader's job to make sure the change is not change for change's sake.
Anyway, glad to be back. LAGuy, over and out.

You could be talking about the Pentagon war planning staff.
They took Iraq (Afghanistan, too) in very short order and with few casualties. If there's one group that's done a great job, it's them.
