American “Stupidity” and “Arrogance” in Iraq (H/T)
The State Department’s Alberto Fernandez strikes again.
By Andrew C. McCarthy

Isn’t this just wonderful? The State Department’s top spokesman on the Middle East, Alberto Fernandez, has pronounced that American “arrogance” and “stupidity” is to blame for the downward spiral in Iraq.

What was the problem? Should we have made sure the enemy was quelled before the democracy-building experiment began? You must be kidding. 

[...]

What clearly is stupidity, though, is having Alberto Fernandez as the public face of American diplomacy.
