    This is the article, pointed to by Amy Goodman's 3/26/08 Democracy Now! broadcast, that alerted me to Randy Scheunemann's advisory role to John McCain.

    Scheunemann, along with Bill Kristol and Robert Kagan, are members of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC). Names associated with PNAC continue to come up in discussions/news about the Iraq War, American military hegemony, and presidential abuse of power.

    Again, be very afraid if McCain becomes our new "I'm the commander guy" (to quote G.W. Bush).

    Frederick Kagan, PNAC co-founder, believes the surge is working. That, right there, is reason to believe that the surge is NOT working.

    Quoted: Debate from the NewsHour with Jim Lehrer: As Violence Peaks and Dips, Debate Over 'Surge' Persists: President Bush said Tuesday he believes last year's surge of 30,000 U.S. troops to Iraq -- which has been attributed with helping reduce the violence in some parts of Baghdad -- is working. Military policy experts debate the effectiveness of the surge strategy.
