How dirty is Murtha? We all saw the tape before our sensitivity was erased, and we got reports that his brother was a lobbyist, heavy on defense. How deep does it all go? BCCI, Clark Clifford, the bipartisan Washington Establishment, Saudi/Sunni money, Jim Baker. This has all been a pervasive presence for a long time.

What where the Neocons up to. Were they trying to tilt toward the Shia, appease the Persians, or were they truly interested in a secular government? Did W wobble toward Daddy, or was the fix in all along? What did Cheney's trip to Saudi accomplish? Did he and the boys (Haliburton, Murtha's brother et al make a deal to ease up the pressure on Iraq and allow a government to form, or was ‘graceful' withdrawal agreed to in exchange for putting Iran in its place?
