The Daily Howler scores once again.
WOODWARD (page 98-99): As for Saddam Hussein, the president ended the debate [about immediate military action against Iraq]. “I believe Iraq was involved, but I’m not going to strike them now. I don'’t have the evidence at this point.”
So it could be said that he "knew" Iraq was to blame and his gut reaction lead to attacking Saddam. So itreasonableable to assume that his administrations gathered dubious intel in order to satisfy the Gut reaction. This is something Bush wanted, war and after 9/11 with no evidence pointing towards Iraq he decided Saddam was public enemy number one.
Didn't the White House Vet this book?
What does Condi say on 60 minutes?
The 9/11 commission "is not concentrating on what happened on the day of September 11th."
Condi isn't a stupid person, she know you need to extend investigationtion beyond that one day. Im interested to see what Clintonnton administration did and didn't do and I want to see what the current administration has done. What should be said is she won't testify under oath, playing politics is what the Bush Administration does best.
