..I'm not arguing he did not talk to these people. But the frame he places on the conversations could not have been derived from them. He either had it before left or someone in the White House could have offered it to him. ....he was simply not in a position to know how extensive any work on a macro level was. The assertion may be right and it may be wrong. None of us knows. But the judge was given that by someone else. And accepted it. Well, you don't "know" this either, since you didn't see what he did or talk to the judge. You don't meet the standard of info you set for him. You are saying that the judge could not have himself counted the number of power plants, seen them come online, etc. You are probably correct. But you are also saying that because he didn't, this necessarily throws the validity of the info in doubt. (You are also implying that any info he might have gotten from Bremer or any gov't official is suspect.) Taking this to its logical conclusion would mean that we all en masse would have to see with our own eyes everything that gets talked about in the media before we believed anything. I'll pass.
