>WALTER RUSSELL MEAD, Council on Foreign Relations:
he used to be one of the L.A. TIMES' leftish authors, who wrote a book about the decline of the US empire that actually used the word "empire" in its title. Now he's with the CFR!
Bob Scheer, of RAMPARTS fame and now one of the TIMES' "column left" writers, came out in favor of the bombings in Afghanistan & the Sudan.
lo the less-than-mighty have fallen.
