O'Connor Speaks

Sandra Day O'Connor, in a news article detailing the circumstances surrounding her retirement had this to say about the Iraq Study Group:


"I wasn't sure I should do it," she said. "It was so out of my field of judging. I don't know anything about the military."
So there you have it. The "bipartisan" committee was made up of at least one incompetant panelist in terms of developing a military and political strategy for confronting the challenges in Iraq.

There is something else that could be said, also. It is entirely possible that the committee was not concerned at all with having experts on the military sit on the panel since the document was not a military document in the least.

Either way, this revelation is just more evidence of the uselessness of the Iraq Study Group.
