Glenn Reynolds, anticipating some weak ideas coming from the Iraq Study Group, has decided to unleash an Army of Davids on the problem to answer the question, “[C]an the blogosphere do better?”

If the first installment is any indication, the answer is a decided No.

Kevin Drum offers an executive summary: “[T]he only problem with our Iraq strategy is that we haven’t declared war on enough people.” He also offers a marketing plan: “Maybe they should write an official white paper to compete with the Baker-Hamilton report. I’ll bet Bill Kristol would publish it.” Heh. Indeed.

  2. I know Iran is making things very difficult in Iraq, but why do almost all the suggestions have something to do with Iran? Iraq’s the problem. A modicum of stabilization there (and probably mostly in Baghdad) would allow policy makers to put more needed attention to Iran.
