Impeach George Bush
It's Showtime
The Iraqi exile group headed by Ahmad Chalabi --- formerly a key ally of the Bush administration --- is suspected of leaking confidential information about U.S. war plans for Iraq to the government of Iran before last year's invasion to oust Saddam Hussein, government sources told NEWSWEEK Somebody's got a problem.

The article doesn't go into any further detail on that, but it does feature a bunch of neocons (called here "political activists" which cracks me up) in high dudgeon screaming about "witch hunts."
People might be able to chalk up all this espionage, treason type talk as partisanship or business as usual in the nation's capital, except it's got nothing to do with the Democrats!! This is a Republican show all the way and all we have to do is bring the popcorn.
Oh, and by the way:
President Bush also distanced himself from Chalabi, saying he had only met the Iraqi very briefly a few times.
Who is this Chalabi you speak of?
If that's on camera, it would make a nice video companion to his notorious "I believe I met Mr Lay when he was working for my opponent."
And I think the more pertinent question is how many times did President Cheney meet with Mr Chalabi, anyway.
Josh Marshall points out the ultimate paragraph of this piece which is a real killer:
"One Bush administration official said that in addition to harboring suspicions that Chalabi had been leaking sensitive U.S. information to Iran both before and after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, some U.S. officials also believe that Chalabi had collected and maintained files of potentially damaging information on U.S. officials with whom he had or was going to interact for the purpose of influencing them. Some officials said that when Iraqi authorities raided Chalabi’s offices, one of the things American officials hoped they would look for was Chalabi’s cache of information he had gathered on Americans."
I'm having Milk Duds too. This is going to be good.

to someone out there who wants to write a book: i
suggest that you go through every article that has
appeared on this website, verify the validity of
the article (which should be a slam-dunk), compile
the articles in chronological order, and write the
book. every other president's affairs and shady
deals would pale into insignificance compared to
this "godfather" style presidency. a book such as
this covering our "appointee" would rival anything
ever written. it could become required reading in
all colleges as "how not to govern". come on, to
some aspiring writer, go for it...
