Are we set to see a purging of the neo-cons?

[UncleJeff]

If, as the DIA reportedly believes (Newsday), Chalabi is part of an Iranian Intelligence operation given access at the highest levels in our Government, sponsored by Cabinet and near-Cabinet-level officials, we are about to see Watergate become a quaint pecadillo.

Yup...

'‘Conservative’ Imperialists Head Bush Administration'... A new form of “conservative imperialism” with roots in the ranks of an elite group of “former” Trotskyite leftists is emerging as a major force among top-level policy makers in the Bush administration. Exclusive To American Free Press

We are witnessing an inter agency power struggle the likes of which we have never seen. It will get bloody.

[UncleJeff]

If Iranian Intelligence has run an operation this high for this long, it should get bloody.

[Destro]

Get a box of good cigars and a case of 8 year old Scotch and enjoy the bloody show.

[Dolphy]

From what I have gathered from ABC Radio news (which claims to have details they can't release for national security reasons) Chalabi wasn't given that kind of access.

[ladyinred]

Oh yes, Bush and his neocons are the evil ones here alright. Sheesh.

[Destro]

Would it not be more accurate to state 'neocons and their Bush'??

[UncleJeff]

He was Laura Bush's guest at the State of the Union. He had enough access that we paid him several million dollars.

[Angelus Errare]

The only thing I'm skeptical about here is one of the named sources in the Newsday story. Patrick Lang evidently believes that the Likud party runs the US, which makes him more than a little suspect as an accurate source of information IMO.

Actually, I think there's a neocon under your bed, pal.

[Destro]

In my best Yiddish accent - Runs? No! Influences? ehhhhhhhhhhhh

[Destro]

Worse then a neocon under our bed is a neocon sitting next to our president.

Maybe you should seek treatment for your jew-anxiety :).

[Destro]

Since you put a smiley face at the end of that statement I will let it slide :)

[tallhappy]

Why slide? You are clearly leftist antisemite.

I don't know if you realize how little you understand your own comments and ideas.

[Dolphy]

I don't think Laura Bush is holding state secrets:) As I said though, I am only repeating what I heard on an ABC news break. They reported that he wouldn't have had access to the kind of information that officials apparently think he or one of his associates has passed.

[Destro]

Well I am anti-Muslim and the Arab people are a Semetic people.

I am proud to say - I never once backed a neo-con.

[UncleJeff]

How about an Iranian Intelligence asset sitting next to him??

IF this is true it is literally a disaster.
