"Two weeks ago Chimpy gave his little Iraq speech to an audience screened by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, whose board includes such luminaries as Steve Forbes, Jack Kemp, Jeane Kirkpatrick, Louis Freeh, Joseph Lieberman, Newt Gingrich, James Woolsey, Gary Bauer, Donna Brazile, Charles Krauthammer, Bill Kristol, and Zell Miller.

This week an organization called Freedom House did the screening. And the Freedom House board? Well, it includes Steve Forbes, Kenneth L. Adelman, Jeane Kirkpatrick, Anthony Lake, Mara Liasson, and Diana Negroponte (wife of John Negroponte)."
