Plans? We don't need to show you no stinking plans!
Well, here they are: the Future of Iraq plans created by the State Department in their futile attempt to positively affect the outcome of the overthrow of Saddam. Oh my, Colin Powell should have known better.
All of which were ignored by "Flowers and Candy" Wolfowitz, "Shock and Awe" Rumsfeld, and "Freedom and Democracy" Bush:
Within the project, seventeen working groups covered such areas as the justice system, local government, agriculture, media, education, and oil. The various working groups began meeting in July 2002 and continued through March/April 2003. Twelve of the groups released reports. The project cost $5 million.
Wow, just the kind of thing that would come in handy on your expedition into global insanity. But Bush and Rummy ignored the entirety of these plans, and ignored one more piece of advice from a cabinet member at the time:
you break it, you own it
He's never been held accoutable before. And it seems like it's going to be that way one last time. Jokes on us!
