You are exactly right. That’s the reason Charlie was “recruited” for that role by Joanne Herring - he was from the “proper” side of the isle, because funding was needed for black ops in Afghanistan and Republican would not be able to do that in then overwhelmingly Democrat-dominated Congress. There had to be a black op first to get the funding, though, because CIA had to (”officially”) have no involvement in Afghanistan, and White House had to be at arm’s length with it and have “plausible deniability”, as well.
Had Ollie North been a “Charlie Wilson’s Democrat”, we would not have had Iran-Contra-”gate”, and hearings amd Lawrence Walsh etc. Instead, we would see “Ollie North’s War” in the theaters near you about a “lovable rogue Democrat” making Nicaragua democratic and free from despotic Sandinistas’ rule...
