This is a tempest in a teapot.

Oh, hardly. PBS had an interesting segment on this issue tonight in which we were treated to pre-invasion clips of Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, and Bush all saying the threat was imminent and the amount of wmds was large and the US knew where they were.

None now appear to be true.

Perle was on. I think it's extremely telling that he kept trying to change the subject. Claimed they got the Al Q Saddam connection correct as one way to change it. Of course, they didn't but that was treated as a failed attempt to change the subject. Schlesinger was on. He tried to change the subject to it was only one part of the story. The panel stayed on that part. Perle claimed that the wmd story, ala Wolfowitz was only used because everyone could agree on it. That didn't work.

It's unraveling. Wonder what the next step is.
