Heads Up, Douglas Feith is getting airtime on NPR. This is more galling than Kristol
ending up on the NYTimes editorial page.

IMO, he'll be the go-to guy when the Mediawhores need someone to run interference with revelations about the misconduct of the Bush/Cheney Administration.

It's too bad the Media never really covered Feith's being a traitor.

How long until Scooter Libby gets rehabilitated?

6. Gen. Tommy Franks described Feith thusly
"The stupidest fucking guy on the planet." One of the architects of the Bush strategy in Iraq. Why NPR allots him airtime that it could be devoting to recordings of Paris Hilton's farts, I could not tell you.

7. Feith led the Office of Special Plans (OSP) at the Pentagon. Where the lies about Iraq were
manufactured and disseminated.

He also colluded with Iranian agents like Chalabi.

9. DU's archives contain a wealth of information and links
on this dyed-in-the-wool neocon and all-around bad actor. Although it makes an attempt to be even-handed, this Wikipedia article can't hide some of the more egregious end-runs he's made around the US Constitution.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Feith

When the roll call of neocon war criminals is finally compiled, Feith's name will undoubtedly be prominent among these traitorous bastids.

2. If they introduced him with something like "And now let's all laugh...
at the guy who got literally everything wrong... Here's Douglas Feith".

He's really the foreign policy version of Cramer (stock dude).

4. Feith
He's one of the stupidest people in the Bush administration. He helped concoct the false intelligence that got us into Iraq with the Cheney basement Iraq Study Group.

For some reason, some DC University made him a professor after he left his VP gig in the White house a few years ago.

He really should be in a Hannibal Lechter solitary confinement with face mask scenario for his contribution to the Bush crimes against humanity achievements.

12. Who is Doug Feith? Right here, and I do mean "Right"
Whenever you want facts on these neocons, just go to this address:

http://rightweb.irc-online.org/profile/1146.html

It tells you the facts, just the facts about the people who were running the country under George Bush's lack of rule.

You can get the facts on individuals and organizations.

I think that it is one of the most worthwhile political sites on the Web.

15. John King gave him credibility and respect on CNN today.
I was stunned to see him giving him such respect.

Pathetic.
