The cover of today’s New York Post features the faces of Iraq Study Group co-chairmen James Baker and Lee Hamilton superimposed on chimps, with the tacky headline “Surrender monkeys: Iraq panel urges U.S. to give up.” Is that any way to treat the long-awaited unanimous, bipartisan blueprint for Iraq by a special commission that counts among its 10 members two former secretaries of state, one former attorney general, one former secretary of defense, two former members of Congress and a former Supreme Court justice? The dissing doesn’t stop there: An editorial inside the newspaper is headlined “The Counsel of Cowards.”
