On Saturday night I was invited to attend a screening of the new movie, Honk for Peace, in Greenwich CT as part of the Connecticut Film Festival. Ned Lamont, Alan Schlesinger, the filmaker Corey Boutilier, the whole Lamont crew and of course, Hollywood Bob, all come out to see the film and enjoy some Q & A with Ned after the screening.
So imagine my surprise when Alan Schlesinger, the Republican nominee for the CT Senate race in 2006 completely repudiated the Bush administration on Iraq seen through the light of Iran.
Follow me below the fold for another shocking repudiation of Bush foreign policy by a self-admitted former acolyte.
But more and more as I look at Iran ... it looks like more and more of a poor decision to go into Iraq originally, I think it's going to cost us for the next 20 or 30 years. I hope it doesn't cost us our lives, in what we're facing with Iran. But it was a big mistake. The Bush administration, on foreign policy, is in disarray.
This diary is just a teaser, the full vlog will be coming up later this week.

Scenes from the premiere by Hollywood Bob who couldn't get CT Joyce to accompany him that night, but alas he was not alone after all walking the red carpet. Spazeboy must have a special IR filter on that camera.
