Itching for WWIII

By Creature

Third verse, same as the first.

Some senior Bush administration officials and top Republican lawmakers are voicing anger that American spy agencies have not issued more ominous warnings about the threats that they say Iran presents to the United States. [...]

The criticisms reflect the views of some officials inside the White House and the Pentagon who advocated going to war with Iraq and now are pressing for confronting Iran directly over its nuclear program and ties to terrorism, say officials with knowledge of the debate.

These angry voices are no doubt led by the vice president and his neo-con henchmen. With the drumbeat having already begun, soon it will be time for their patented cherrypicking and fixing of intelligence around a set of predetermined conclusions.

The NYT has more, and remember every time "some" official is cited insert the name Cheney and things become clear.
