Further Reactions to West Point Speech

++ Andrew Sullivan says that it wasn't "dovish" but conservative in the manner of George H.W. Bush and Ike.

++The New York Times didn't like that it didn't soar.

++Ed Klein at Time magazine  sort of like it for its realism.

++The Hill published a story how the imperial papers didn't like it and the House Committee on Armed Services duly circulated this to its email list.

++David Corn thought "meh" . He's only got two years left and can't create a grand strategic design anyway with the world we have.

++Robert Parry thought it moved the ball forward but President Obama is still hamstrung by the neo-conservatives and has to give them too much.
