"You never saw such a rush to dismiss this as not news. U.N. weapons inspectors whose reputations rest on denial of Saddam's W.M.D. pooh-poohed the report. "It doesn't strike me as a big deal," said David Kay. "

Once burned twice shy. They are right to minimize signifance so as not to be seen as exaggerating the issue again. If they think that there is more of this, the best solution is to quietly go after finding it. Then with real proof, make it public. A premature push in this area will do more PR damage than good for Bush. Mike
PS This may prove that they someone has old shells (numbers ytbd) that need to be jerryrigged to work. It seems to be that its not the weapon to use when attacking a convoy. If it is indeed a WMD, they have to find the right venue for use. I dont think the terrorists would use it against iraqis, not because they care but because it would hurt their cause. Anyway lets find it all.
