Realpolitik and dropping the ball

The Times reports,

A decision by the Central Intelligence Agency to fly Sudan’s intelligence chief to Washington in a C.I.A. jet in April set off a dispute inside the Bush administration, with some officials arguing that such recognition for a government accused of genocide and ties to terrorism sent a regrettable signal, administration officials said on Friday.

Shows us how serious the U.S. is about isolating the genocidal Islamo-Fascists in Khartoum. But then this amusing aside:

[The Sudanese official’s] trip was first reported April 29 in The Los Angeles Times, which reported on the controversy within the administration in an additional article on Thursday.

Translation: fuck, we dropped the ball on this one!
