The Clinton campaign is peppering Obama with jabs regarding his foreign policy advisors (Zbig Brezenski, Robt Malley) and Israel. Freedom's Watch will not just jab Obama, they will pummel him with this stuff.

If I'm not mistaken, it was linked only on the right wing Free Republic, and some fairly obscure blog called "gun-toting liberal" or something like that--perhaps my archtypical audience. FWIW, for a long time now I thought Hillary was the better choice for actually beating the very bellicose McCain, and still do-- but am gradually beginning to appreciate the historic role Obama might play in recasting American foreign policy. </p> I'm glad someone finally noticed this piece, which for weeks (for some odd reason) basked in more obscurity than anything I had written in years.
