Redacted Version of Op-Ed on Iran

I am now officially counting the hours until Bush leaves office. Censoring a New York Times editorial - for no good reason - is stretching the "war on terror" a little to far. I smell fascism in the air.  

Indeed, the deleted portions of the original draft reveal no classified material. These passages go into aspects of American-Iranian relations during the Bush administration’s first term that have been publicly discussed by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice; former Secretary of State Colin Powell; former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage; a former State Department policy planning director, Richard Haass; and a former special envoy to Afghanistan, James Dobbins.

James Dobbins? Hmm.... way to close to James Dobson. It made me shiver just a little.
