Why was the head of Iraq’s secret police

the only top official to retain his position when Prime Minister Maliki formed his new government? And does it have anything to do with the fact that he was on the CIA’s payroll as recently as 2005?

It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if the whole damned Iraqi Guminit was on the CIA payroll.

We claim we want a democratic Iraq, free to govern themselves, but we can’t keep our own dirty fingers out of the stew can we?

Like with bin Laden, Saddam, bush the older-but-unfortunately-still-living, when exactly do people stop working for the CIA? I mean, they got to where they are by being part of the CIA. Did they just say “Thanks for the leg up. I’ll be seein’ ya. Time for me to be legit.”

No. Never.

When we drop the pretense and say “our” secret police?

What’s all this Iraq stuff? They aren’t a country anymore.

Come to think of it, neither are we. What do you think bush will rename us?
