Humpty Dumpty...

Sat* on a wall, and the yoke is on us.

[Saved in draft 6-16-11, redated as published with addendum, The Daily Rant on The Dylan Ratigan Show(Mark Ames: Exiled No More: IPO for America**). Where are the tin-foil hats now? If only this were only Fable TV.(To be clear, I am not suggesting second amendment solutions, but there is a difference between Sharon Angle exploiting fear for the sake of exploiting the people and the media, and a Ted Rall expounding upon and exploiting his solutions. Then there is a third tier, MSNBC's Rachel Maddow(and Dylan Radigan) exploiting and expounding upon the issues for ratings and our consideration.)]

[update Point Counter-Point:

The White House vehemently denies that there is any change in policy. "The president has been crystal clear that we will begin drawing down troops in July of 2011. There is absolutely no change to that policy," said Tommy Vietor, a White House spokesman.(This quote appears in both McClatchy sources

Parsing Focus or Focus Combat:
My point is that the two articles, before I read them, seemed to indicate a proper balance. Unbeknownst to me the McClatchy was even updated but I have now read the original McClatchy (Point-above) it was based on, as well as the other two (Counter-Point) and find my original embedded feeling that it was a good transition balance from military to political focus. This is a multidimensional* refocus, which even Rand Paul has played a reasonable part in. The focus is not so much on July 2011, but ultimate success**, and the aim to bring the discussion from military to political focus. Must we be reminded that while Congress does have the powers of the purse and war, the President is commander-in-chief and there is no real constitutional branch of diplomacy or foreign policy or Department of Peace.
* balance of powers within our nation and within other nations (from military to diplomacy)
** July 2011, Transition begins.
