These aren't really plans…they're fantasies of escape

John Podhoretz in the NY Post critiques the Democrats “plans” for Iraq, with none more biting than this takedown of Wesley Clark:

Meanwhile, Clark's idea that we should somehow compel Saudi Arabia to start hunting terrorists in other countries really does call into question the way they grade at West Point. Clark may have been first in his class at America's great military academy, but that credential didn't prevent him from offering here the single most ridiculous proposal of the post-war period.

In his conclusion, Podhoretz uses the adjective that I always attach to the Democratic presidential candidates: “unserious.”
