...week that he essentially intended to take a year of political planning by the U.S, crumple it into a ball and toss it into the waste can. He had his own ideas about how Iraq should be governed and who should govern it. Early this month Secretary of State Colin Powell said expanding the 25-member, U.S.-appointed Governing Council was the most practical approach for transferring power after the Coalition Provisional Authority disbands on June 30. But Brahimi's plan, which he will present for Annan's approval this week, takes as its starting point the demise...

...tried to make Farmer feel better by telling him that other important people missed the list, like Tony Blair, Alan Greenspan, Colin Powell and Paula Abdul. I also suggested that he put on his resume "101st on TIME's list of 100 Most Influential People," but Farmer told me his resume is "Harvard format" and has no place for it. "But I'll make sure and tell people here in rural Haiti about it later in the morning," he said. "I'm sure the patients will be anxious to know about...
