Looking for a Fall Guy/Fool
The story, reported in the April 11 Washington Post by the ever-reliable Peter Baker and Thomas Ricks, tells of the White House's secret attempt to find "a high-powered czar to oversee the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan with authority to issue directions to the Pentagon, the State Department and other agencies."
The punch line is that at least three prominent retired four-star generals have been asked if they'd be interested in the job—and all of them said no.
