Triangle-area folks who came to the John Locke Foundation Headliner luncheon last week to hear from Washington Times defense reporter Rowan Scarborough, author of the new book Rumsfeld’s War, will likely find his latest dispatch in the Times to be of interest.

What, you haven’t hear that story? It’s been on the front page of every newspaper. . .

Uh, never mind.
