1. I can't get over my initial impression of Armitage
He looks and sounds like a such a goomba. He's even missing a few teeth...

Put a fedora on him, and he'd look like he stepped right out of a Cagney movie.

3. Uncle Fester's lllegitimate Son?
Put a light bulb in the guy's mouth...maybe the truth will accidentially come out.

I'm enjoying David Obey's perspective...but it's waaaaaay over the heads of almost everyone. A deadly mistake.

Armitage's Quote from Baghdad

Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage described Iraq as a "war zone," but noted that "we have the momentum in this process."

"I'm absolutely convinced we have a very solid plan to go out and get these people who are killing us and killing Iraqis," he told reporters during a visit to Iraq.
