Who cares about the (possible) personal motivations of any of the actors in this little episode?

What difference would any of that make to the larger, more important question: was the administration correct when they told the American public (and the world, at the UN) that 'Saddam was actively seeking uranium in Africa'?

Since the administration has subsequently *withdrawn* those words (not to mention the various separate actions debunking the source documents as frauds...), and admitted their conclusions were incorrect, then I believe there is no longer any dispute over the fact that what was claimed was false.

The larger issue of national interest trumps minor personal matters everytime.
