I FIND ANOTHER "FRIEDMAN"

(Here's the definition of "Friedman Unit")

This time it's from a bigshot at the Brookings Institution talking about Sen. Reid's claim that the surge isn't working:


"Even though I don't agree with him, nobody can prove him wrong. The state of knowledge about fighting these kinds of war is not so sophisticated as to prove him wrong," said Michael O'Hanlon, senior fellow in foreign policy studies at the Brookings Institution in Washington.

"I think it's probably poor judgment" to say now that the war is lost, O'Hanlon said. "In the next six months we should learn a lot more about whether the surge has a chance, and whether any Plan B is worth contemplating."
