Rescue me!

Scapegoat (n): One that is made to bear the blame of others.

See also: "War Czar" Army Lt. General Douglas E. Lute.

I can think of no reason for the appointment of General Lute to perform the functions that are written into the job descriptions of the Commander in Chief and the National Security Adviser other than finding a scapegoat. I even heard somebody quoted that General Lute will be doing the job NSA Hadley would be doing "if he had time." If he had time? What national security job is more important to the United States than Iraq?

This Administration is incompetent and mendacious. Every time I think it can get no lower, it finds a way.
