So what's Colin going to do?  Give assurances that his brat patrician 
scion boss just needs to get his juvenile cowboy antics out of his system 
with a little boy scout adventure in Baghdad (to the tune of $9 billion 
a month) and that those w/ material interests in Iraqi-Russian business 
relations should just indulge him and wait it out on the sidelines?

Go for it Powell; show us how you grovel for Shrub, Rove, Perle & Co. ....
