Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has proclaimed the NIE which claimed that Iran gave up its nuclear weapons program in 2003 a "surrender" on the part of Washington to Iran in their standoff: http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSDAH66861820071216. I think that he's 100% correct. And, when you factor in the screeching by people such as Presidential hopeful Joe Biden that he would move to impeach President Bush immediately if there were now an attack on Iran, you can see that Ahmadinejad is not misreading the American political scene.
As an aside, I would also note to the Delaware Senator that it's the House of Representatives that moves to impeach, not the the Senate, but why let a technicality like that get in the way of a good television soundbite?
