notes on "Fiasco" by Thomas Ricks

"Feith ought to be drawn, quartered, and hung," said a Bush administration official who worked with him frequently. "He's a sonofabitch who agitated for war in Iraq, but once the decision is made to do it, he disengages. It was clear there were problems across the board...and he just had nothing to do with it. I'm furious about it, still."

...characterization of Americans in Iraq "lions led by donkeys".
