Scowcroft on Bush

Steve Clemons has posted some lengthy extracts from a New Yorker article on former national security advisor Brent Scowcroft. (The article itself is apparently not online, but a Q&A with the author is.) Fascinating stuff. I was never a big fan of the elder President Bush, though he has grown on me as time has gone by, but one thing one could never argue with is that he had a great group of men and women around him, including Scowcroft. Scowcroft is very close to the elder Bush, and to Secretary of State Rice.
