Well, now it gets interesting.

First, Bush declares that Iraq will soon have nukes based on faulty intelligence (remember the 'mushroom cloud' comment). Then, it is revealed that the administration knew about the faulty intelligence for about 6 MONTHS prior to the State of the Union, but Bush used it anyway. THEN, it is revealed that Bush was TOLD the intelligence was faulty, at which he got mad, insisted the CIA find some operative that *would* say it was true.

Then, the administration backs off its 'mistake', leaving Blair hung out to dry. Now, Blair fights back, insisting that, contrary to his countrymen's opinion, he is not an idiot and a lapdog of Bush.

Hmm, and they impeached Clinton for lying about sex with an intern?
