1. Brigadier May, date of departure is DECEMBER 2011

there IS your date

Oh and Rachel is firing the Main Gun of an M-1... you go girl!

[malaise]

2. Watching now n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

3. Notice we have a date

and we have crickets.

[demmiblue]

4. Wow... 72,000 contractors.

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. And a rear admiral who is comfortable with Mercs

that speaks volumes.

[mmonk]

8. Your tax dollars at work.

It's what privatization is all about.

[nadinbrzezinski]

10. Remember this really started when Chenney

was SecDef for senior, I would not expect ANYBODY to turn that around in 18 month, even if I wish they could. Ok they could have, if we were not in the middle of a war. There is a certain inertia now.

6. Listening to Richard Engel, this will not end well

in between the lines, read in between the lines.

7. Off topic..how tall is Maddow?

She towers over Engel(sp).

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. I have no idea

she is either really tall, or average and Engel really short

:-)but I'd say tall, she also towers over the locals.

11. FASCINATING

So Engel did not live in the Green Zone, so the reality is very different outside the "safe" areas.

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. This is the tragedy

and we are going to leave behind a power keg.

[nadinbrzezinski]

13. And I knew it was coming to this

people miss Sadam... it comes down to that...

It is the old, but the trains ran on time!
