	Time article on Bobby Ray
		Safire opines that ''Inman was protecting himself'' against disclosures about ''his defense-related business activities over the last 10 years'' and that his fulminations against the press were ''a smoke screen.'' But it is not at all certain that anything remains to be discovered.
		Inman thought he heard a drum roll of growing criticism that might not have stopped confirmation but could have aborted his major project: instituting reforms in procurement that would save enough billions so the Pentagon's budgets could be stretched far enough to cover its weapons-buying plans.
		After Inman's press conference, Goodman quipped that ''maybe he was auditioning for the starring role in 'The Prince and the Pea' '' -- an allusion to the fairy tale about a princess so sensitive that even a single pea under a pile of mattresses would keep her from sleeping.

	WITHIN A MONTH! THE BRINGING DOWN OF BOBBY RAY INMAN
		Inman was denounced as remarkably "thin-skinned," his behavior in charging conspiracy treated as "weird" and "bizarre," and the general reaction echoed that of Senator Dole: that someone harboring "fantasies" of this sort was not really equipped to be the captain at the helm of America's defenses.
		One was Inman's role as a member of the board of International Signal and Control, a firm found by a federal district judge to be a criminal enterprise engaged in illegal arms dealing, money laundering, and business fraud on a massive scale.
		The most fascinating, but oddly enough the least reported, aspect of the Inman Affair, is the source of the implacable hostility that Safire and his allies have borne for many years toward Bobby Ray Inman.

		BOBBY RAY INMAN: In carefully crafting legislation, you should leave the prospect of an emergency situation and a limited response to that emergency situation to then be followed by getting it by, because we -- just as I didn't envision in 1978 some of the things that popped up, that might happen again.

	Media Coverage of Bobby Ray Inman: Pro-lsrael McCarthyism in Action
		Americans who didn't personally watch Admiral Bobby Ray Inman's televised press conference on Jan. 18, 1994 would never have been able to figure out the role of Israel's self-appointed American guardians in the admiral's decision to withdraw his nomination as President Bill Clinton's secretary of defense.
		Her Jan. 20 column on Inman's press conference compared him to the "off-the-wall naval officer lashing out at the world" depicted in The Caine Mutiny and suggested he was a "career egomaniac." She didn't even hint at what Inman had to say about Safire and Israel.
		Inman has backed off some of his charges, but alleged again in an interview this week that when he, as deputy CIA director, moved in 1981 to limit Israel's access to U.S. intelligence, Safire privately asked Casey to overrule Inman.

		What Inman shared with some of us -- and this was a repeated assertion from comments that I have confirmed that he made in Austin -- is that the person in Patrick Fitzgerald's bull's eye is [former Deputy Secretary of State] Richard Armitage.
		Inman stating that Richard Armitage is the target of indictment is news and could have some veracity because of who Inman is.
		It would be unfair to Inman, who has probably never heard of danieldrezner.com and would not necessarily have known he was talking to a blogger with any kind of audience.

		Inman nonetheless enjoyed a reputation in Washington -- and most especially on Capitol Hill -- for intellectual brilliance and bureaucratic savvy that overshadowed a more easily assessed and utterly dismal record in the private sector.
		After all, the conventional wisdom ran: Adm. Inman was highly respected by Members of Congress; Adm. Inman was the youngest four-star admiral in history; Adm. Inman held a number of the government's most sensitive jobs.
		It would be ironic indeed if Bobby Ray Inman's greatest service to his country were to be performed when he declined to serve as Secretary of Defense.

		Inman has a memory that is close to total recall.
		Inman is also loyal and willing to stake his name on controversial associates -- within clearly demarcated limits.
		For example, Inman wrote a letter last year to a U.S. district court judge in Philadelphia commending the "patriotism" of arms merchant James Guerin, who has since been sentenced to 15 years for fraud and smuggling weapons to South Africa.

	The Washington Note
		Inman also said the program clearly contradicts the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act which Congress passed in 1978 -- at the time he was head of the National Security Agency.
		I think that Admiral Inman's insights into the NSA eavesdropping program are important -- and given his self-admitted penchant for candor, I think that many of his comments on other fronts are fascinating, insightful and informed by his considerable analytical abilities and high quality relationships in America's national security bureaucracy.
		Inman probably has scuttlebutt concerning Armitage being involved in at least one "leak", and is concluding that makes Armitage a "target" of the investigation.
