The Sun has startled me from the outset  regarding its support of  the candidacy of Michael Bloomberg - even as an Independent. Now, the Sun cites " a former foreign policy advisor in the Clinton administration" as a possible foreign policy advisor in the event of a Bloomberg run for the Oval Office. It should hardly come as a surprise to anyone that  one of Clinton's pals opposes George Bush in Iraq- or in anything else- should it? You say  she believes the Iraq war was "botched from the beginning".  Let's get some perspective here if possible.  Historical pperspective, that is.  Let's compare say with World War II.  During the first six months after the invasion at Normandy, 600 American soldiers were bombed by American planes in error  In addition, an American three-star general was killed.   Had Ms. SDoderberg been around then, it's easy to imagine that she would have shrieked "Incompetence!" The war is being bungled pathetically!" Ms. Soderberg's positions, to me, are clearly politically based. I have little or no respect for them.
