And I've read enough on Iraq lately that it becomes hard to keep everything straight. I think I'm going to take a break from this topic for a while so my blood pressure can recover. Although it was fun to read the book's rather blunt condemnations of judith miller. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/88424?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
