"Robert M. Gates was the Central Intelligence Agency's deputy director for intelligence (DDI) from 1982 to 1986. He was confirmed as the CIA's deputy director of central intelligence (DDCI) in April of 1986 and became acting director of central intelligence in December of that same year. Owing to his senior status in the CIA, Gates was close to many figures who played significant roles in the Iran/contra affair and was in a position to have known of their activities."

As of late, he's been working with Jim Baker.

Ted, it was just confirmed on CNN. Already the election is producing change.

Only problem is his replacement. Never heard of him, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's another "inner circle loyalist."


According to Z's post, he's hooked in with Jim Baker. I think maybe Bush's father is going to start to play a bigger role now.
