OT: I guess it depends on what the meaning of "is" is? |
Interesting. Apparently the CIA wasn't being pressured. While, that is,
the White House was being praised for pressuring the CIA.

"As President Bush's determination to overthrow the Iraqi dictator has
become evident to all, a cultural change has come over the world's most
expensive intelligence agency: Some analysts out at Langley are now
willing to evaluate incriminating evidence against the Iraqis and call it
just that.
"That development has triggered a fierce internal agency struggle pitting
officials whose careers and reputations were built on the old analysis of
the Iraqis as a feckless, inert and inward-looking bunch of thugs against
those willing to take a fresh, untilted look at all the evidence."
Except that the "incriminating evidence" which they took a "fresh,
untilted look at" has turned out to be pretty much baseless.
On the other hand, who needs the CIA anyway?

Form your *own "intelligence" organization. You get better results
that way.
And you can *still blame the CIA even after you ignored them.
(It was bad enough when people tried rewriting history that was decades
old. Now they're rewriting history that's only months old. What's next?
Last week's history? Yesterday? Fifteen minutes ago?)

Short & sweet: You do.
Bush has been working his ***** off to discredit the CIA.
This is his second attempt, in fact, to pin the
administrations invented "Intelligence" on the CIA.
The neo-cons didn't *Suddenly* lose their ability to
manipulate the media and report whatever it is that
benefits them the most. The neo-cons didn't *Suddenly*
become patriots, more concerned with the welfare of
this nation than their own personal grip on money &
power.
When confirmed liars who you know are acting against
your best interest tell you something, you should ignore
it.
Considering this is a case where confirmed liars -- acting
against your best interest -- are telling you THE EXACT
SAME THING they have already told you before, and they
were proven to be lying, it's shameful if you pay them the
least bit of attention.

Sure. Eliminate the CIA, and in its place create a
gest^H^H^H^Hsecret agency that answers only to
you, giving it the power to arrest and imprison any
person they see fit. It's Ashcroft and Shrub's wet
dream.
