US Vice-President Dick Cheney gave a speech yesterday about how he was really right all the time.
Yet the conclusion of the war will mark one of the most extraordinary military campaigns ever conducted. It's proceeded according to a carefully drawn plan with fixed objectives and flexibility in meeting them. In the early days of the war, the plan was criticized by some retired military officers embedded in TV studios. (Laughter.)
Did none of his audience ask themselves where Cheney was embedded throughout this fighting? Or indeed where he featherbedded himself during the Vietnam War? A war he advocated strenuously but which he left other people to fight?
