Paul "No Second Takes" Bremer

Crooks and Liars:
Former head of the Iraqi Provisional Government and Neo-Con Apologist L. Paul Bremer comes on Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer on the fifth anniversary of the invasion and occupation of Iraq to admit, that yes, mistakes were made (and gosh, he had made recommendations that were ignored over assumptions that turned out to be false)…blah blah blah, but even still, he doesn’t think they would have done anything differently in retrospect.

...

Wow. A very tragic price to pay considering we went in for NO REASON, Bremer. And this tired meme that all these other countries agreed with our intelligence continues to be put out without any challenge. OUR OWN weapons inspectors questioned it. The UN questioned it. France and Russia questioned it.

...
Maybe he needs to review Imperial Life in the Emerald City: Inside Iraq's Green Zone, for a refresher on how wrong he lead things.
