It's the kind of policy wonk silliness that gets people killed.
Didn't we already have a Friedman thread?
By silly you mean "serious," right, Atrios?

Tom Friedman doesn't want to admit he was and is wrong. That is all.
The linki is atriosed.

Howdy folks!
I see Six-Month Friedman is still an idiot. There is some comfort, in that, some things don't change.

Ken Pollack, not Tom Friedman, " was most responsible for selling the war to centrists and liberal "hawks" and thereby creating "consensus" support for Bush's war."
But, but, we're so fucking noble and humanitarian!
By silly you mean "serious," right
What kind of silly question is that?
I am sure that the adoption of the metric FU ("Ten Months or Ten Years?") will improve our understanding of the many complexities in Iraq.

If Clinton had pushed for the invasion of Iraq to spread democracy and stuff, Friedman and his ilk would have been laughing about stupid dirty pc hippies living in lalaland and their unrealistic magic crystal dreams. But when Bush does it, it's practical and moral and wonderful. You just have to change the names.

these delusional fux seem to believe everything woulda been okay if somehow we could have invaded and conquered and occupied and raped and pillaged Iraq gently, and humanely, and ya know, been like the big furry puppy-dogs everybody knows us USers always are...

GG sez:
It is still the case in Establishment Washington that having been pro-war in the first place is a pre-requisite to being considered a "responsible, serious" foreign policy analyst. And having been anti-war from the start is the hallmark of someone unserious. The pro-war Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden are serious national security Democrats but Russ Feingold, Nancy Pelosi and Jack Murtha are the kind of laughable losers whom Democrats need to repudiate.
Didn't Murtha initially support the war?

The president’s advisers need to tell him all the harsh truths about Iraq in the vivid terms they require; they need to tell him how little time he has left to act. This administration has been orchestrating a foreign policy disaster of epic proportions, and history will remember both that the president failed to hear the warning bells and that many others failed to ring them loudly enough.
He's only writing what the CIA is paying him to write.

the patron saint of the chattering class:?????
In late September of 2003, Donovan McNabb was the subject of very controversial comments made by Rush Limbaugh, who worked as a commentator for ESPN at the time, stating that the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback succeed. The comments came after the Eagles began the season 0-2, losing to defending Super Bowl champion Buccaneers and eventual champion New England, both losses coming in their newly opened stadium, Lincoln Financial Field. There has been much discussion about the merit of these comments, which resulted in Limbaugh's resignation from ESPN.

"A pro-family activist in Texas says recent elections served as a wake-up call for Christians in the Dallas area. Earlier this month voters in Dallas County elected Lupe Valdez, a known lesbian, as county sheriff, and gave Democrats control of a majority of county offices.
Cathie Adams, president of Texas Eagle Forum, says voters in that county must not be afraid to take politically incorrect stands on moral issues. She believes that in the wake of the recent election results, Christians activists will now start speaking out about such issues. “Hopefully we can start turning this ship around in order to do exactly what God has called us to do,” says Adams, “which is to humble ourselves and turn from our wicked ways, to seek His face — and then He will heal our land.” "

OT, but from the U Independent obit on Dave Cockrum, co-creator of the "new" X-Men:
...Cockrum was to benefit little from the hoop-la surrounding The X-Men, either financially or critically. Leaving the title after two years, he returned to it three years later after his successor, John Byrne, quit, before jumping ship for good to become a Marvel staff artist, while trying to get his own comics into print. Thereafter his career took several turns for the worse: his pet project, The Futurians, was published by Marvel and then Lodestone, to critical acclaim but commercial failure. The 1980s and 1990s saw his style fall out of fashion, as he freelanced for one failing publisher after another (Lodestone, Acclaim, Defiant, Broadway), before spending four years working on Soulsearchers and Company for Claypool Comics. Receiving no royalties from any publishers, he was facing a poverty-stricken future in obscurity when he was admitted to hospital in 2003 with health problems...

nick carraway
If you think Bob Kane got screwed over Batman, you don't know the story of how Bill Finger (Batman's near-co-creator) got screwed over Batman.
I would quibble.
Friedman is not "the silliest" because at occasion he betrays some higher cognitive functions. E.g. he did recognize before the war that for the war to be successful a number of conditions have to be satisfied, none possible. This last bit somehow was overlooked, but even so, not super-silly.
Moreover, every year or two Friedman produces an o_r_i_g_i_n_a_l thought, which he proceeds to murder, like in some horror movies, again and again, until he gets another one.
I think that at best he suffers from bipolar disorder, and surely from delusions of grandeur. With medications, psychotherapy, and perhaps some electroshocks, his prognosis could improve.
How dismayed he was that neither Bush nor any other leader followed his sage advise! The inevitable glorious success was predicated upon Bush, and henceforth, all other relevant state leaders, would follow Friedman's prescriptions. How can he be faulted for the misdeeds of the swine before whom he threw so many pearls!
Clearly, this is something more profound than ordinary arrogance of a pundit.
Tom Friedman held my respect only momentarily, then lost it forever.
I'm tired of the stinking rich telling me what I should think about anything whatever, and Friedman married so much stinking money that he'd have to be sent to the rice paddy for two or three decades to get the oligarch stench off his hide.
