I think Eisenhower's most important decision was interfering in Iran. When the CIA became involved in Iran's politics, it marked the begining of several CIA intervenions in other countries. It also indicated that the US had lost sight of all other goals or values, and focused solely on defeating communism, using any means necessary, without consideration of the morality of it's actions. From this point on Eisenhower, and many of his successors, saw matters as black and white, either for or against communisn, and failed to take any other considerations into account.
