Here is the final schedule for Monday’s forum that my colleagues and I have organized titled “The Real State of U.S. Foreign Policy 2006“. The meeting will take place from 8:30 a.m. – 1:45 p.m. on Monday, January 30th, in the SD-G50 of the Dirksen Senate Office Building.
We learned in the last U.S. presidential election that one has to tiptoe carefully through exit polls, which are often wrong and distracting, but this news out of the Palestinian election rings true to me.

I really like Bartlesville, Oklahoma — a small town there just 35 miles north of Tulsa.
General Wesley Clark is going to keynote a conference my New America Foundation team and I are putting together on the Real State of U.S. Foreign Policy 2006, and this will take place on Monday, January 30th in the Senate (Senate Dirksen G-50) from 9 a.m. until 1:45 p.m.

Monday morning, 9:30 a.m., in SC-6 of the U.S. Capitol, war-profiteer and former CIA Director R.
Oakley really does not want me to leave town again. But I must. For those of you who are in the San Francisco Bay area, TWN is planning a trip out there tomorrow, arriving in the morning. I return to Washington on Wednesday.
