So today's score, the White House blames the war on bad CIA intelligence?
That's what the statement from the White House claims, according to Blitzer on CNN. Bush said that he always felt the intelligence leading up to war was wrong and is setting up a new position in the CIA so that it doesn't happen again.

Now, didn't we already cover this? Didn't we already determine through the Libby trial at the beginning of this week, that the CIA made it amply clear that the intelligence for war was not there? There was no doubt from the White House. They knew what they were doing. Does anybody have a synopsis from H20's research that can pinpoint the exact quote or description of the event where this was clarified in court?

3. But I thought this was already covered?
That is what I don't understand. It's like we've already been here, and then they put us back on Square One.

4. And the warplans for Afghanistan weren't on his desk prior to 911 too. I
believe everything these bimbos come up with.

5. I'm just really concerned, because if he has us confused, we'll
never get the message down to the right-wing voter who's still sending spam astro-turf that's three years old.

7. That's not what Wolfie is saying he said.

ON edit: The White House came on record AFTER the interview and made it more clear. The intel was bad.

8. Is the report out?
Do you have a link?

A conservative has tried to spin it "Is this the same thing that was released today that slapped the hands of civilians interpretting evidence but concluded that the Administration did not mislead or lie to Congress?"

Is the report or the synopsis of the rport out?
