The Great Wizard of Kos himself penned a pathetic rationalization on why a Bill that fully funds the war, has no binding control on next year’s budget and efforts (that comes later this summer) and has benchmarks that only need to show ‘progress’ (whatever that is) is actually good. His lame excuse was the Bill […]

Take the latest fiasco (outlined here). It calls for benchmarks, etc and Congressional review of these marks. If progress is not made it […]
