3. "Meet the Press" dusted off James Baker for irrelevant Republican spin?

I swear, since they canned David Gregory have moved to the right like Fox News. The second week after Gregory left, all guests were Republican.

As Todd noted Bush and Baker did not take out Saddam in 1st Gulf War, Baker of course knew what would happen (not coalition agreements ended at kicking Iraq out of Kuwait, as historical record) but country would fall apart (no problem leaving murderous despot in place).

So, didn't Bush 2.0 removal of Saddam create all these problems today?

No, says Baker, one of the chief engineers of the Bush coronation through the Supreme Bush Court. Today's problems were created by Obama abandoning Iraq and doing nothing about Syria, and now we have ISIS.

This ancient, decrepit Republican hack, with his ongoing, decades-old, arrogant, condescending self-righteousness, is perfect for the new right wing corporate bent of NBC. They have to be after the viewership of Fox.

They certainly aren't after progressive liberals.
