Didn't GW's dad do this with Iraq (encouraging uprising) and it was a disaster....?

President Bush today called on the Iranian people to reject their hard-line government, saying they "can do better" and need not be isolated by a leadership that destabilizes its neighbors and pursues a suspected nuclear weapons program.

Speaking of Daddy Bush, yesterday's NY Times piece suggests GHW gets more involved in GW's presidency than publicly known. I wonder does GHW really want it to be known that he's had more say and influence on his son's disaster of a presidency? Who in their right mind would want any association with calamitous reign if they could avoid it...?
