Consensus amongst a gaggle of thugs and rascals

Kerry wants to find Consensus amongst a gaggle of thugs and rascals.

Margaret Thatcher said that, "Consensus is the absence of Principle and an abundance of expediency."

So true… so true. It would be much easier and expedient if the entire world, North Korea and Iran included would have come down on Iraq. It would have been a true bureaucratic quagmire, but what of that? We would compromise everything for everyone, and prove Lady Thatcher right.
