Anybody remember ol' Bernie Schwartz? Guy who MIRV'ed the Chicom strategic missile force for Slick Willie while Bernie was at Loral?

How 'bout America-hating liberal double-domer Walter Russell Mead? And who said Christine Todd Whitman was a librul?

Interesting the Franklin Foer is a fellow at the New America Foundation and that is Soros-backed. What does that say about this article? It is not very flattering about Soros. Is this damage control?

BTW I see the odious Steven Rattner is on the board of The New America Foundation. Plus there are at least three hedge fund managers on this list.
