A Sort-of Retraction at the Guardian
Insta-man notes that the Guardian has taken down from their website the story about Wolfie, and notes elsewhere that they were quoting from a translation from German of Wolfowitz' original English remarks. While not exactly a retraction (unlike the Powell/Straw meeting-that-wasn't), the Guardian no longer is posting the story as news.
Well, looks like I was wrong about what Wolfie said, or at least about the context and intent.
Buckethead-- yes, we do want our politicians to talk policy. However, we also want to have the cake too. As my crony Bridget pointed out, Wolfie has been acting recently like a diplomat speaking to diplomats in private, when he should probably be speaking like a politician.
I seem to have heard of this Harry Potter person. English, is he? Some sort of mystic?
