Worse Than Johnson?

Quote of the Day:
As a Republican, I would never have believed that President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld would waste so many opportunities and so much of America’s reputation that they would rival Lyndon Johnson, Robert McNamara and McGeorge Bundy for the worst wartime national security team in United States history.
-Anthony D. Cordesman, a fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, in a Sunday New York Times piece where nine experts on military and foreign affairs were asked to comment on the Iraq War five years on.
