Who Cares About Iraq?

It seems to me that Rudy Giuliani's negligence with respect to the Iraq Study Group is a big deal. He blew off service to his country to rake in moolah on the public speaking circuit. Classic Rudy, but not exactly of a piece with "America's Mayor trying to save the country from terror." Greg Sargent swiftly exposes the Giuliani's campaign's attempt at spin here. He didn't show up because he was a presidential candidate and didn't want to turn the report into a political football? Then why did he agree to participate months after he declared himself a candidate? The truth is: Giuliani has shown no interest or expertise in crafting war policy. And on a study group dedicated to the critical issue of Iraq, Rudy couldn't be bothered to show. If he were a Democrat, this record would be translated as clear evidence that he is unserious about foreign policy and national security. And the truth is: Giuliani is unserious about national security. Just listen to his boilerplate: full of testosterone and devoid of content or analysis. The man is simply unqualified to be president.
