…Daily I meet people who are struggling to keep their heads above water, crippled by their desire to always be “right” and to have an answer about what will happen n the future. But you can’t know this, nor do you need to. You just need to notice what is and isn’t working, and then be willing to flip.

Ron Suskind’s unnamed administration official was speaking the plain truth when he said “when we act, we create our own reality.” We in the liberal- democratic “reality-based community” need to keep this in mind. When an intel guy is talking to a policymaker (in the unlikely event he gets the chance to do so), he should always keep in mind that the latter is trying to create a new reality. Doesn’t mean he rejects what you tell him, which will naturally be reality-based.
