If we'd listened to Dick Cheney....
As you read this, remember two things.
1) The Iran NIE has been kept from release for a year (with some suggestion that the Cheney camp kept sending it back trying to make it tougher.)
2) During this time, the same people advocated bombing Iran.

U.S. intelligence has determined that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program in 2003 but believes it is continuing to develop technical capabilities that could be used to build a bomb, a government report said on Monday..
The latest National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) released by the Bush administration also said Iran would likely be capable of producing enough enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon "sometime during the 2010-2015 time-frame."

Has Bush or Cheney been right about frickin' anything!? Would the know the frickin' truth if it bit 'em on the ass!?
The next occupant of the White House better flush twice once these criminals move out.

Seems to me they're always trying to make the facts fit their agenda.

The really amazing thing to me is that they actually had people seriously discussing whether we should have imminently bombed Iran.
Remember McCain and the song, or the GOP debate where they all said yes? (except for Paul.)

Well it's the same old story. Nobody wants to look weak.

Yup. That's always a recipe for good policy. (or fascism.)

By now you may have already heard the latest neocon spin on the NIE: the invasion of Iraq was what convinced Iran to drop its nuclear weapons programme.
These people live in a fantasy world. Maybe if we invade Ghana, Chavez would step down, too. Or at least give up his non-existent nuke programme. Wouldn't that make it worthwhile?
