Bush Incompetent on Security
This is interesting:
the U.S. government under the Bush administration has been uniquely vulnerable to the intelligence schemes and foreign policy freelancing of discredited individuals and deemed fabricators such as Manoucher Ghorbanifar, and potentially even counterintelligence threats of an Iranian or other nature. It details how top officials in the Bush administration endeavored to permit such an ill-advised channel, took affirmative measures to conceal it in order to bypass the professional intelligence service, and then took steps to protect their role in the matter by shutting down the counterintelligence investigation launched by the Pentagon and to stall the Senate probe.
In simpler terms: President Bush and Vice President Cheney and their trusted lieutenants allowed themselves to be conned, ignoring the warnings of more experienced intelligence professionals in the CIA and elsewhere.
Bush and Cheney are bad for U.S. security.
