The Bush administration accepted on Thursday the outlines of a United Nations proposal to dissolve the Iraqi Governing Council installed last year by the United States and replace it with a caretaker government when Iraqi sovereignty is restored on July 1. link...
What's so funny about this is that it's nearly identical to what Kerry has been suggesting for nearly a year. The Bush administration, in a whiplash inducing reversal has basically ceded civilian control to the U.N. You can tell, by this line, that Rummy ain't too pleased (probably because his boy Chalabi won't get everything he wanted).
Secretary of State Colin L. Powell also supported the plan, while Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, without explicitly approving it said it was likely to become a reality.
