Why The Republican Party is Bad for America - #11

"In President Bush's first term, some of the most important decisions about US national security - including vital decisions about postwar Iraq - were made by a secretive, little-known cabal. It was made up of a very small group of people led by Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld....But the secret process was ultimately a failure. It produced a series of disasterous decisions and virtually ensured that the agencies charged with implementing them would not or could not execute them well."

-Colin Powell's chief of staff Larry Wilkerson in the
Los Angeles Times
