CIA vs. Bush/Cheney - Huge Ramifications

From "right wing hack" John LeBoutillier:
1) Bush is not just a ‘lame duck’ politically; he is now a Dead Duck.
2) The Super-Hawks calling for surgical strikes against Iran in the next year have been de-fanged;
3) Hillary is hurt even more in the Democratic race for wanting to go after Iran;
4) The GOP candidates - except Ron Paul - look like Bush Toadies for all salivating at the chance to go after Iran in an Election Year;
5) Bush/Cheney may trot out another excuse to hit Iran: that Iranian agents are infiltrating Iraq and hitting and hurting US troops. This is probably true and was predicted in this space 5 years ago. Retaliation may be justified, but not hitting Iran nuke sites;
6) In sum, this takes Iran off the table as a major 2008 issue, shatters the remaining credibility of the Republican establishment, crushes the neo-cons, who have caused us so much trouble, and puts this Administration on ice.
