The Associated Press reports CIA Director Michael Hayden made the following statement in response to a student question while delivering the Landon Lecture at Kansas State University.
“It is my opinion, it is the policy of the Iranian government, approved to the highest level of that government, to facilitate the killing of Americans in Iraq. [sic]“
That is a very important statement made by a highly placed U.S. government official. It comes awful close to admiting an unofficial war is already being fought with Iran. If you look at the world map, you’ll notice Afghanistan and Iraq both border Iran. Al Qaeda has to be hiding out somewhere. My guess is Iran. Iran allows them freedom of movement and a central location for funneling troops and supplies. If that is true, we all know where to find Osama Bin Laden. He’s smoking cigars with Iranian #1 — Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

Political Commentary: Senator Clinton Talks to O’Rielly About Rev. Wright Jr.
Posted by JungleBoot on May 1, 2008
Bill O’Rielly caught up with Hillary Clinton for an interview on Wednesday. On the topic of Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., Senator Clinton stated, “I will leave it up the voters.” That wasn’t what O’Rielly was after. He wanted her opinion as an American citizen and cordially pressed the issue.
O’Rielly: “You’re an American citizen. I’m an American citizen. He’s an American citizen — Rev. Wright. What do you think when you hear a fellow American citizen say that stuff about America? What do you think?”
Clinton: “I’m offended. I think it’s offensive and outrageous.”
Watch the interview.
