    My favorite part:

    A 2002 Pentagon PowerPoint briefing on plans for the upcoming invasion of Iraq -- code name "Polo Step" -- that assumed that only 5,000 American troops would remain in Iraq by the end of 2006.

    And they were all going to be eating candy, and smelling flowers too! After all, the Mission was already Accomplished!

    My favorite build-up line was Wolfowitz saying that the Iraq would pay for itself in oil revenue. Are we up to $2 trillion in oil revenue yet?

    Also:

    It was Dec. 21, 1970, and Elvis had a mission: He wanted Nixon to give him a federal narcotics agent's badge so he could carry dope and guns wherever he went. Nixon didn't give Elvis the badge, but he did pose for pictures with the King of Rock-and-Roll.
