Richard Perle quits ...

... as Chairman of the Defense Policy Board amidst a conflict of interest scandal.

1.3 billion dollar contract. They also got the contracts to build the detention facilities at Guatanamo bay (sp?)

*sigh* Sad really.

There's some amusing stuff Ari The Jester said that I posted on my blog, it's worth reading.
