Plame's Lame Game

[Preechr]

oOps... hit enter too early...

Damn... that's already a long post!

Anyhoo... The part about "groupthink" being able to be challenged by "red teams" is pure bunk. "Red Team" analysis has never bore fruit. The main problem is a near total lack of information sharing between the groups that are doing the productive work. Inter-agency and iter-department turf wars and a badly configured promotion plan are the primary culprits... but I'll grant you "red teams" sounds sexier.

I've never meant to imply that the hawks are ideologically pure as well as technically perfect and the anti-war side is fully manipulated by a Lex-Lutherish, diabolic genious named Michael Moore... though it would be funny to see him in that outfit doing the mad, mad evil-genious laugh...

Hey... weren't we supposed to be talking about Valerie Plame?

*sigh* In trying to answer your posts, I seem to have gone WAY off topic... let me know what else you want to talk about, and I'll give it a shot.
