NeoCON?

A story on TomPaine.com suggests that the Bushies' "break" with Chalabi is just a ruse to get him in power in the post-June 30 government. "See? He's not our guy--he's independent and stuff!"

So they pretend to cut off his funding and make a dramatic raid on his home and office, and Chalabi acts suitably outraged. Try to convince Iraqis and the whole world that he's not an American puppet so that he can continue to be an American puppet. Would Iraqis really think that an independent embezzling lying scumbag would be a big improvement over a puppet embezzling lying scumbag anyway?
