	Portrait of a drug czar - Salon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Barry McCaffrey drives his government office like a lockstep battalion, but some contend his ruthless schedule and egomaniacal ways are only hurting his effort to bring sanity to America's drug policy.
		As it turned out, McCaffrey may not even have been addressing the assistant with his request, but the many 70-hour weeks the assistant had put in at the drug czar's side had taken their toll.
		Barry McCaffrey is the country's most-decorated general, its longest-serving drug czar and, now, an architect of a U.S.-backed counterinsurgency campaign that on Wednesday took him and President Clinton to Colombia.

	Overwhelming Force (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		McCaffrey's assault was one of the biggest and most one-sided-of the Gulf War, but no journalists appear to have been in the area at the time, and, unlike the "highway of death," it did not produce pictures and descriptions that immediately appeared on international television and in the world press.
		McCaffrey's insistence that the Iraqis attacked first was disputed in interviews for this article by some of his subordinates in the wartime headquarters of the 24th Division, and also by soldiers and officers who were at the scene on March 2nd.
		McCaffrey was widely believed to be Schwarzkopf's favorite general (Schwarzkopf had previously served as commander of the 24th) and was viewed as being indifferent to the wishes of Lieutenant General Gary Luck, the commander of XVIII Airborne Corps.

	McCaffrey on 'Weed'
		McCaffrey didn’t “name names,” but sports fans knew who he was talking about, just as yuppies would know who he meant if he had made the accusation against “the cast of Friends” without divulging their names.
		McCaffrey alluded to (though did not cite) a controversial New York Times story of Oct. 26, 1997, “NBA’s Uncontrolled Substance,” when he wrote, “According to some estimates, as many as 70 percent of NBA players may be current drug users.
		As McCaffrey claims to be concerned about the messages our impressionable youth receive about drugs, he might be interested in the messages a typical NBA telecast delivers about the mind-altering drug most likely to kill or hook both teens and adults.

	Memo on the Margin: General Barry McCaffrey, War Criminal? 05-24-2000
		McCaffrey later described the carnage as "one of the most astounding scenes of destruction I have ever participated in." There were no serious American combat casualties.
		But Hersh finds a significant time lapse before the order is given by McCaffrey, who only heard of the shots fired after there were discussions among his subordinates on what they meant and what should be done about them.
		McCaffrey’s just one fellow, but he is a metaphor for what has been happening to our country as we sit triumphantly on top of the planet.

		McCaffrey's critics said the expensive propaganda campaigns aren't working, and the $1 billion should instead be redirected to after-school programs and other activities that have demonstrated they can keep kids away from drugs.
		McCaffrey's anti-drug advertising campaign, designed with the help of commercial advertising agencies, is aimed at changing youth attitudes about drugs with Web sites and commercials.

	WorldNetDaily: Me and Barry McCaffrey
		I met McCaffrey several years ago at a small dinner party put on by the Brazilian Embassy in Washington, D.C. He walked up and introduced himself simply by name, something which stands out favorably in a town where every junior deputy assistant undersecretary likes to make you aware of his title.
		McCaffrey started to answer, but then some guy, a lobbyist/lawyer, put in his two cents worth in defense of the insane war on drugs.
		McCaffrey's reign as drug czar is just one of many signs that the U.S. military is becoming active in the drug wars.

	Barry McCaffrey Should Resign: Newsroom: The Independent Institute
		McCaffrey’s purchase of altered television programs was a political act designed to sway public opinion.
		In an October 1999 speech McCaffrey described the goal of his programs as increasing the “mind share” of anti-drug messages with the help of “experts in behavior change.” Such language is inconsistent with a society in which the people are meant to control the government and not the other way around.

		McCAFFREY: I think my gut instinct says that our business is to protect youth, so we're going to have to go back to basics and support drug education and prevention programs, give people the information, the mentorship to ensure they understand the nature of this threat.
		McCAFFREY: Well, I think incarceration is part of it, but I think law enforcement is a vital component to treatment programs, without which they can have no reality, and we also need to say as a matter of principle that these drugs are wrong.

		McCaffrey, who at the time he retired was the most decorated four-star in the U.S. Army, has long been critical of the way senior Defense Department officials went into the war, assuming they could defeat an army and pacify a large country with far fewer troops than he says generals said they needed.

	The War Criminal and the Whore: Barry McCaffrey and Jose Miguel [Free Republic]
		McCaffrey, accused last week by Seymour Hersh in the New Yorker of having been involved in war crimes in 1991 at the end of the war in Iraq, has been the most conspicuous advocate for deepening US military involvement in Colombia.
		No surprises here, since McCaffrey used to head US Southern Military Command, which has a prodigious institutional self-interest in the drug war, since it provides a nice updated rationale for the old, old business of counter-insurgency.
		f the McCaffrey package is beaten back yet again, it will a heartening sign similar to those heartening signs in the early eighties when Congress tried to kill aid to the contras: that our national affairs are not entirely run by madmen.
