In all three cases--North Korea, Iraq and Foleygate-- the Republican establishment knew something was wrong but failed or declined to address the problem. And the reason for the inaction was mostly a desire to keep the public in the dark so as better to win elections.
Juan Cole draws the parallels quite succinctly. Like small children, if you cover your eyes no one sees you, if you cover your ears the sound stops. That's our American leadership in action!
