Michael O’Hanlon is displeased:

Michael E. O’Hanlon, a Democratic defense analyst at the Brookings Institution who has been an outspoken supporter of the war in Iraq, said he could not believe that Obama would put such a definitive timeline into print before a trip to Iraq, where he is to consult with Iraqi leaders and U.S. commanders.

“To say you’re going to get out on a certain schedule — regardless of what the Iraqis do, regardless of what our enemies do, regardless of what is happening on the ground — is the height of absurdity,” said O’Hanlon, who described himself as “livid.” “I’m not going to go to the next level of invective and say he shouldn’t be president. I’ll leave that to someone else.”

Susan E. Rice, a senior Obama foreign policy adviser, snapped back, calling McCain’s position “fundamentally disconnected from reality.”

Huh. Well, I’m livid too, not least about the fact that Mike O’Hanlon has been critical to the project of keeping my country in a pointless war that will apparently never end. You’d hope that O’Hanlon would at least take into account the fact that the Iraqis seem to be demanding a timeline for US withdrawal; you’d hope, but of course you’d be wrong.

So please, Mike, go fuck yourself. How’s that for going to the next level of invective?
