Katulis vs. Kahl

Since Brian Katulis is right about everything, it's no surprise that his response to Colin Kahl is also spot on.

See also my response to Kahl and Eric Martin's response to Kahl. Plus my post on the importance of regional strategy. If you're wondering why it's worth spending so much time on one guy's guest post, the basic answer is that there's a lot of influential thinking along more-or-less Kahlian lines in the most hawkish Democratic circles and he seems much more willing than others to engage in this sort of forum.
