Obama and the NIE

Am I missing something, or doesn’t this whole thing make Obama look pretty prescient about opposing the Lieberman-Kyl Amendment on Iran, and Clinton look like a dupe (again!) for supporting it.  Clinton was willing to give the President some legal justification for bombing Iran to destroy a fictitious WMD program, and Obama again smelled that something was rotten.

Played right, I think this is a huge new chip for Obama.

It certainly can't hurt.
