We’re buying a beer for… Mark Thiessen

Last night, you appeared on The Daily Show to discuss your new book, Courting Disaster. You and Jon Stewart got after it in a way that makes for great television, but perhaps not so wonderful for Democratic-Republican relationships.
You contended that President Barack Obama is making the world dangerous while your former boss, President George W. Bush, “made mistakes” but had a better track record keeping the terrorists at bay. Stewart, among other things, wondered if the Right calling the lawyers who defended terrorist suspects as the “Al-Qaeda Seven” was a bit “pejorative.” It was great. And you surely need a beer afterwards.
(Here’s the interview if you’re interested. Set aside 11 minutes; it’s compelling stuff.)
