6. But I think we're all missing something here
He leaked selective portions of an intelligence report. The stuff he leaked supposedly backed up his argument that Hussein was trying to buy yellow cake or whatever. The stuff he DIDN'T leak was the stuff that said that Joe Wilson was right, no such attempt was made by Hussein.

At the VERY least, this document proves that the chose to only believe and report anything that would back their case to invade. Any other relevent information was of no use to them.

This pretty much proves that the misled the country into believing that Hussein was a threat, when he knew otherwise.
