bush deputy defense secretary wolfowitz. one of the guys that brought us the war in iraq. wolfowitz before becoming a public debate questioner was a guy that said the united states could do iraq with a small force, we'd be greeted as liberators and the whole thing wouldn't cost us a time. last night he was grilling them on american foreign policy. wolfowitz wasn't alone. >> i'm david adding ton, vice president with the heritage foundation. >> if the name david addington sounds familiar to you, it's because his old job is legal counsel to steef of chaf to dick cheney. he was a mysterious shadowy guy behind the scenes who was advocating things like torture were actually legal and the executive branch had the right to do anything it wanted in the name of national security. like wolfowitz, david addington picked by cnn to scrutinize the republican field on foreign policy since he is so distinguished himself in that field. also featured prom meantly during last night's debate was famed bush administration' rah neo conservative fred kagan one of the driving intellectual forces b
