Now, as to the issue of demonizing the previous administration...
Unfortunately, it seems that every leader of a state either bases his or her standing by praising the predecessor, or trashing the high holy hell out of him or her. The ancient folks would go so far as to scratch their names off temple pillars, so it ain't nuthin new. But you're right...pulling a Carter-style witch hunt against the intelligence community is about as assinine a move as can be contemplated. It left us naked during the 80s, again in the 90s and it'll result in loss of intelligencel going forward.
I'm not sure if Obama is being pulled by Pelosi et al or whether he's playing us by trying to make it look like he isn't in favor of it. He may very well see his own future in seeing what the morons are going to be doing against the Bush Administration. Bush's folks (and the Congress at that time) barely scratched the surface of Clinton's sticky wicket, so the present power-holders can't really argue an eye-for-an-eye as they move forward.
It was (and is) a war...
