Steve Gilliard, 1964-2007
It is with tremendous sadness that we must convey the news that Steve Gilliard, editor and publisher of The News Blog, passed away June 2, 2007. He was 42.
To those who have come to trust The News Blog and its insightful, brash and unapologetic editorial tone, we have Steve to thank from the bottom of our hearts. Steve helped lead many discussions that mattered to all of us, and he tackled subjects and interest categories where others feared to tread.
Please keep Steve's friends and family in your thoughts and prayers.
Steve meant so much to us.
We will miss him terribly.
Fucking stupidest guy on the face of the earth

Thats what General Tommy Franks called Doug Feith former necon dark lord at the pentagon. Now, it appears that in the DOD budget of 2005 one of the largest earmarks was by Doug Feith for $90 million bucks, what for? nobody knows. Its classified. You might not have noticed that the "fucking stupidest guy on the face of the earth" was mentioned last week in the nytimes, to wit:a spokeswoman for SAIC said the company was told to contract with Ms. Riza by an official in the office of the under secretary of defense for policy, then headed by Douglas J. Feith.
Feith resigned from the post of Undersecretary of Defense in 2005. But apparently he was taken care of people, if you know what i mean.
