Martin Bright has a good post on his blog on the New Statesman (UK) on a bit of history in the runup to the Iraq War -- The woman who nearly stopped the war. Some interesting history on the use of intelligence to pursue a policy decided upon.
And ... guess who sent the FBI a letter about Spitzer and alleged escapades in Miami? The same Roger Stone responsible for shutting down the 2000 presidential election recount effort in Miami-Dade County. Amy Driscoll has the story on the Miami Herald (Mar 21, 2008, Beach man told FBI of alleged Spitzer sexscapades).
Predatory Lenders' Partner in Crime, How the Bush Administration Stopped the States From Stepping In to Help Consumers by Eliot Spitzer (February 14, 2008, Washington Post).
Interesting use of Justice Department resources to avenge themselves on Spitzer.
