I heard on the radio this morning that British Prime Minister Tony Blair is calling for 'engaging' Iran and Syria in solving the Iraq 'problem.' I also heard that the White House response is something like "We'll consider it if the Baker commission proposes it."

If this comes to pass, it will underscore something I wrote to a friend this past weekend about this very same possibility. If the Baker commission suggests such a 'reaching out' it will prove that one can be 'highly credentialed' and 'blindingly stupid' at the same time.
