Judith Miller in Drag

Well, it looks like Judith Miller style neocon warmongering is not dead at the New York Times. Yes, we now have new members of the Leonard Pinth-Garnell school of journalism, William Broad and David Sanger.

Short version of the story, is that the NIE saying that Iran had halted nuke weapons work is bunk, and they may have a nuke by next year.

This, along with Fallon's firing, is a pretty good indicator that Bush and His Evil Minions^™ want to bomb Iran before Jan 21 2009.

This is why the two Democratic nominees need to say specifically that any order to attack Iran in the absence of a congressional authorization would be an illegal order, and that, if elected, they would prosecute soldiers who obey illegal orders.

Those nuclear warheads that were "misplaced" a few months back were not "misplaced" it was an attempt to stage them for a nuclear first strike.

Thanks to Digby for the catch.
