I suppose it begs the question "Which American politician (or even world politician) has been consistently correct on Syria?"

I suppose it begs the question "Which American politician (or even world politician) has been consistently correct on anything?"

Also true, but it's a matter of degree. Some politicians get it mostly right while others get it mostly (or nearly always) wrong. I'd argue that NeoCons, for example, fall into the latter category, particularly with regard to the Middle East.

But NeoCons "create (their) own reality. And while (we're) studying that reality—judiciously, as (we) will—(they) act again, creating other new realities."

Hmmm, I didn't see any get out and stay out and apologize for sticking our noses where they doesn't belong for the last 100 years or so. -1
