Paul Wolfowitz

Fire of Liberty

John Podhoretz has a informative piece in The New York Post which notes that the reason why President Bush appointed Secretary Wolfowitz to the World Bank, Condolleezza Rice @ State and Bolton @ the UN is because they thought "outside the box" in the field of foreign policy. These individuals went against the tide of the foreign policy establishment and proposed concepts and policies that were frowned upon by the stuffed shirts @ the Council of Foreign Relations and the US Foreign Service Organization. It's good that we've got brave souls like these.

Also here's a commentary in The Times by Gerard Baker on Paul Wolfowitz. It clears up some of the blurriness on the whole term neo-conservative which has created great hysteria on the left. Boy, these people need to get out and read more. This could be a good starting point.
