LOL.
Sorry, back channels are a serious problem in any elected organization.
A lot of great things could be done for America ...and the world for that matter if we ignored the consent of the populace and/or elected officials of other branches.
However, that isn't the point of a democracy...or even a republic (in the case of the U.S.). You can't go through back channels. The constitution is there for a reason.
Things must be properly done according to protocol.
Ironic that the U.S. chooses to use an executive-dominated, back-channel laced adminsistration to toppel a dictatorship ... in order to instate....a democracy?

I presented my version of the big picture prior to the invasion and have always thought as well as stated prior to the invasion that WMD's were the least of the reasons for the invasion.
