You might have told the young woman that if her real interest is Native studies, she should specialize in something only loosely related, and leave Indians entirely out her dissertation. The time to submit something to <I>American Indian Quartery</I> or <I>Wicazo Sa Review</I> is after a successful third-year review in a tenure-stream job. I wish her well. Native studies is an exciting field of study, made all the more so by excellent odds of living on the street as a consequence.James Stripeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13437334325501974461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36212542.post-80866854064336440702008-01-05T10:15:00.000-05:002008-01-05T10:15:00.000-05:00"Think about Iraq as a computer, Saddam Hussein as...<I>"Think about Iraq as a computer, Saddam Hussein as a processing chip. Remove Saddam chip and insert Chalabi processing chip."</I><BR/><BR/>When folks like Juan Cole ascribe comments that are stupid and naive to people on their Enemies List, it ought to send up a yellow flag. One shouldn't have to be a fan or a fellow-traveler of Douglas Feith to be skeptical in this fashion.<BR/><BR/>I tried sourcing TR's paraphrase of the words Cole put in Feith's mouth. The best I could manage is <A HREF="http://volokh.com/posts/1170907947.shtml" REL="nofollow">this Volokh Conspiracy post</A>. Actually, that post isn't much help--the comments contain a cut-and-paste of <A HREF="http://www.juancole.com/2007/02/3-month-record-for-us-troops-killed.html" REL="nofollow">Cole's unsourced 'transcript'</A> of Feith's purported exchange with 'a State Dept. Official.' However, the VC comments did include this useful opinion from Matthew Goggins:<BR/><BR/>"<I>As for Mr. Cole, I find his blog to be a strange mix of powerful honesty about Iraq and the Middle East, blended with some powerful dishonesty about Iraq and the Middle East. I believe he could become a very powerful advocate for his views and a much stronger polemicist if he could find some way to purge his writing of all the dishonest elements.</I>"AMachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08872008617279528583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36212542.post-29541925328965195352008-01-05T05:50:00.000-05:002008-01-05T05:50:00.000-05:00And by the way, job seekers: listen to TR and Atin...And by the way, job seekers: listen to TR and Atina Grossman: that's great advice.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again!anthony graftonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588520143876853373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36212542.post-41583109932904545352008-01-05T05:49:00.000-05:002008-01-05T05:49:00.000-05:00And here's a warm thank you to TR and the other ex...And here's a warm thank you to TR and the other experienced historians who came by yesterday to counsel job seekers. Working for the Professional Division of the AHA has been so great that I am sorry to give up the job--and above all because it's given me the chance to work with people of amazing generosity and public spirit at the AHA (an amazing outfit), in the division itself, and outside it. Thanks so much, everybody, and I hope to see you all at next year's session, which will be run by David Weber.anthony graftonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588520143876853373noreply@blogger.com
