I note without (much) comment the participants on today’s conference call with ” Internet national security writers” and Defense Secretary Bob Gates and Gen. James Cartwright, which I for one greatly appreciated:
Me
*Wired’s *Noah Shachtman
Politico‘s David Cloud
Slate‘s Fred Kaplan
CFR/Commentary‘s Max Boot
American University’s Gordon Adams
The Center for American Progress Action Fund’s Matthew Yglesias
Interesting mix there. I would have expected more conservatives, frankly.
Also, while TPM’s Brian Beutler wasn’t on the call, check out his attemptsat chasing Rep. John McHugh’s (R-N.Y) “$8 billion cut” in defense — something McHugh appears to have invented— down the rabbit hole.
