I know that George Bush — after a few days of study, contemplation, and strategic thinking following the December 26th tsunami disaster — decided to weigh in “Big Time” with American aid and support for victims in Southeast Asia, South Asia and Western Africa.
I have written before that America has its head in the sand when it comes to its quickly deteriorating economic portfolio.
James Woolsey and Richard Perle were testifying yesterday before the House Intelligence Committee. They both seem to be thriving despite a mountain of evidence that both are inappropriately financially profiting from America’s “war on terror.
I don’t want to get into the details of this right now, but there is a time I had an interesting phone conversation with former President George H.W. Bush. Some interested parties in Japan were approaching him to come to Japan after the conclusion of his presidential term and were offering him $2 million.
President Bush keeps mentioning Japan and his buddy-buddy relationship with Junichiro Koizumi at press conferences as well as the fact that Japan is a stunning example of evil foe turned into fast friend and robust democracy.
As regular readers of The Washington Note know, I have been fairly stunned by the growth in readership of this blog, and I work hard to interact with those who comment — both in private emails and in the public comments sections.
