Oi, it's incredible how a black mini-skirt can transform your walk to work...A cute valet from the Peruvian Embassy said hello, and a construction crew sang "Oh baby, you got what I neeed". Touche, black mini-skirt, touche.
I had a big event today, Richard Haass presented his book War of Necessity, War of Choice at Brookings. Haass is a very big deal in Washington, and his extensive experience with government was evident in his presentation as he discussed the successes of Bush I and the failings of Bush II in Iraq. I found his speaking style to be both witty and sharp, which I love to see in any Bush bashing, and his focus to be very clean. Not sure that I'm with him point for point, but I think the concept of classifying and prioritizing the use of force is valuable. Policy makers, as well as the public, should understand that there are wars of necessity and wars of choice, that not all conflicts are the former.
The BBC Reith Lectures Series is visiting GW tonight, but the nice lady at the fold-up table told me very Britishly that I have been bumped from the list (:p). I guess I'll watch one of my movies that came in the mail today instead (thank you Sarah, you are a life saver!!).
