If You Support Iran, Vote Republican

I haven't read much War Nerd for the past year or so and read a few columns tonight. In the stuff I read tonight, he wonders more than once if Dick Cheney is a mole doing Iran's work here in the USA. From his "If It Ain't Fixed, Break It All Up" column:

Because we've been doing the Persian Empire's dirty work for it from the moment we took out Saddam. What is it with these supposedly patriotic types always sucking up to Iran? In the late 80s it was Ollie North bringing them cakes, Bibles, and Hawk AA missiles on behalf of Ronald Reagan; now it's Bush and Cheney actually going to war to destroy the Persians' one local rival and leave Tehran in total control of the Persian Gulf. And now, by way of fixing the mess, we're going to make Iranian dominance permanent by splitting up every other state in the Middle East.
