    It's not often that the NeoCons and NeoLibs publicly align themselves preferring to keep their unsacred alliance from the American People, but this new independent panel reads like a who-who of all the usual suspects and one unexpected panel member...

    Congress forms panel to study Iraq war
    Panel to recommend Iraq policy to Congress, White House

    WASHINGTON (CNN)
    -- Congress unveiled an independent panel on Wednesday assigned to study the U.S.-led war in Iraq and to make policy recommendations for both Capitol Hill and the White House.

    The bipartisan Iraq Study Group -- led by former Secretary of State James Baker, a Republican, and former Democratic congressman Lee Hamilton -- is designed to focus "fresh eyes" on the war debate from people who "love their country more than their party," said Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Virginia, during a Capitol Hill news conference.

    (snip)

    The group will be made up of five Republicans and five Democrats.

    They include: former CIA Director Robert Gates; former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, a Republican; former Clinton adviser Vernon Jordan; former Clinton Chief of Staff Leon Panetta; former Clinton administration Defense Secretary William Perry; former Democratic Sen. Chuck Robb; and Alan Simpson, a Republican former senator from Wyoming.


    Panel members said another prominent Republican will join the group but declined to say who it is. A congressional Democratic leadership aide identified that person as retired Supreme Court Associate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor

    (snip)

    Wolf said Congress will appropriate $1.3 million to fund the group, which will work under the au es of the congressionally chartered U.S. Ins ute for Peace and three think tanks.

    I guess Henry Kissenger and Kenn Starr were booked?

    Are they really going to look with "fresh eyes" on the Repug war?

    Or are they just padding their careers by associating with other important people?

    It is a United States war dummy. But your hatred for Bush clouds your
    ability to think rationally.
