Francis Fukuyama is on the advisory committee of the Libby Defense Trust!

I find this to be remarkable, given Fukuyama's recent stance on neoconservatism. Is the fact that he would align himself with Libby a sign that things may not go well for Dick Cheney in the near future?

Hmmm....

1. I was wondering just what the heck he has been about...

on tv appearances lately.

Seems a little clearer now.

But it could be some kabuki-like dance. You just never know with these guys.

5. Well, he wrote a book, too...

...so, I think his appearances are promotional. Regardless, though, he's taken a very public position against the foreign policy of the B*sh administration and, now, we see that he's prominently featured as one of Libby's defenders. I suppose it could mean nothing more than that he likes Libby personally. But people like Fukuyama have to be VERY aware that associating one's name with a high profile defendant will imply much more than friendship.

look @ where the star is ..... and only 5 blocks from PNAC on 17th street ....... 3 blocks from the White House.

"They" are trying to keep Scooter on the reservation.

6. Isn't Tucker Carlson's dad on there, too?

7. You're right.

He strikes me as being somewhat more moderate than his son.
