What Do Walt Whitman, Admiral Fallon, and Waterboarding Have in Common?
Posted by Heather Hurlburt
Eli Lake and I discuss all of them, as well as censored Iraq reports and other topics, over at bloggingheads. You can hear Eli try out a number of new potential neo-conservative lines of counter-attack on Iran, Iraq, Israel-Palestine and torture; one very interesting theory on why Fallon was forced out (so Petraeus can have his job; who knows?) and one of the more specious conservative attacks on an interconnected world that I've ever heard ("multilateralism leads to waterboarding").
Closet English majors and my friends who hang out with poets will want to go to the end for the Whitman reference.
