Reply #13: Yes, I thought Hicks's was vague w/ regard to Bremer too. Galbraith

on the other hand, makes it very plain that Bremer was both taking orders out of the WH AND so cocksure of himself no one could tell him different. Bremer had no experience in the ocuntry of Iraq, had never held a post like this and had two weeks to "come up with a plan". I think that's Bushspeak for no plan myself. The fact that no one can pinpoint where directives come from in thsi administration makes it clear that Bush is not the decider he purports to be.
