#1 NPR this AM reports on the 9/11 commitee's report that 9/11 hijackers traveled through Iran (on their way from Afghan to KSA), but with no Iranian marks on their passports. NPR of course spins this as "see Iran more implicated than Iraq - nanana" but it strikes me as the beginning of open discussion about Iran support for AQ. Will we see more?

#3 LH-The local news put the same spin on this report as NPR. "Haha, see we missed the bad guys by one country. How is this going to play, blah, blah" (/paraphrase). It appears the partisan media has received the talking points. If thought at all like me they would say: "And the reports seem to indicate that Iran is next."

#4 Bush should come on TV and say:

'My fellow Americans. Our esteemed media has pointed out that invading Iraq was a mistake. They tell us that Iran has solid ties to Al Qaeda. I'm sad to say, they are right. So, since they are obviously right and to make it up to you, I've ordered our forces currently in Iraq to withdraw from Iraq immediately and to invade Iran. God bless America.'

Then when they bitch and moan about that he could say, 'but the media told me to do it.'

#5 Could this be a classic Bush rope-a-dope ploy? Get the LLL practically begging for an Iranian invasion?

"Oh please, don't throw me in dat bria' patch"
