evidentally screwing the CIA is a bad thing...
Do we all remember good ol' Dubya blaming 9/11 on the intelligence community? Do we all remember the instigation of the Homeland Securtiy agency, and the justification that such a body was needed because basically the FBI and the CIA couldn't do their jobs?
And who would have thought that these agencies wouldn't just say, "hey yeah, I guess we are the ones who dropped the ball. I mean if the President say so, it must be true." I mean, couldn't they just play the fall guy so that the president didn't have to look like an idiot in this whole thing. If the president says, "they're fault," aren't they supposed to say, "my bad." I mean if we can't count on the CIA to be cute and fuzzy fall guys for the president's gross incompetence, then who can we count on? Well, evidentally, no one sent the roll-over-and-play-dead memo to the CIA because they aren't.
They have just released their report that says that Iraq did not have any of the things we claimed they had--that we claimed we needed to go to war with them because they had. The report also shows that Iraq doesn't have any ties to Al Quaeda. Ouch! I mean that's really got to hurt. What's more, through some coincidence, the report was finished and ready for release only a month before election. Can you imagine that? This horrible embarressment to Dubya is going to be fresh in people's minds on election day. That just sucks. It's almost like the CIA...oh, I don't know...planned it. But why in the world would they want to smeer the reputation of the president when he was so nice to them by including (or implicating) them in the whole 9/11 intelligence fiasco? Bad form, CIA. Haven't you guys heard the old adage: there is no bad publicity?
The moral of this story is, I suppose, do not fuck with the intelligence committee. Do not tell lies and hope that the CIA won't check up on your facts. That's what these people do. Also, there pretty good at ruining the reputation of a country's leadership.
I, for one, hope that this was just step one of a much larger plan. After all, I have a place in my heart for the CIA, NSA, and FBI. Call me a romantic, but I just love a good spy story. And besides, at this point in our country's dismal economic situation, it's good to see our tax dollars at work.
