Is Gates Channeling Cheney on Iraq with "Last Gasp" Remark?
Nancy A. Youssef, McClatchy Newspapers: "Midway through a week of mayhem in Iraq, Defense Secretary Robert Gates raised eyebrows when he said the recent resurgence of violence in Baghdad was 'a last gasp' of Islamic extremists. It was an echo of former Vice President Dick Cheney, who in 2005 said the insurgency was 'in the last throes.' The following two years were the deadliest period of the war."
