“What we need,” he said in a recent interview, “is someone with a lot of stature within the government who can make things happen.”“He” is Stephen J. Hadley, the national bunker security advisor, and what he's describing is the job description for the position of war czar (or as Hadley modestly puts it, the “implementation and execution manager”) which is available, Bunky, if you think you can make things happen (although what, exactly, they mean by “execution” is a little bit unclear). Hadley, apparently, is not feeling up to the job himself and then there's that “stature” thing to worry about, of course. None of the guys who got us into this mess have much stature left so a pinch warmonger is what they need, it seems.
What we really ought to do is send in a whole new team.
