"BTW, in what way was the yellow cake "story" bogus? As far as I can tell, Joe Wilson confirmed it."

dev.siliconinvestor.com;

Up above is what you posted to me in one post. In a second post, you linked me to an article where two paragraphs were in bold.......the two down below. How does what is said below in those paragraphs support your argument that Wilson confirmed the yellow cake "story" was true? How does what he reported bolster the case to intelligence analysts?

Who ran this committee and how many GOPers were on it?

Let me repeat my earlier comments.......it was found that the documents purporting to show that Saddam bought yellow cake were forged as Wilson and others determined. Bush was warned not to include it in his speech in Cincinnati......so he dropped it. It then found its way into his State of the Union where he proceeded to lie to the American public.

Wilson's assertions -- both about what he found in Niger and what the Bush administration did with the information -- were undermined yesterday in a bipartisan Senate intelligence committee report.

The panel found that Wilson's report, rather than debunking intelligence about purported uranium sales to Iraq, as he has said, bolstered the case for most intelligence analysts. And contrary to Wilson's assertions and even the government's previous statements, the CIA did not tell the White House it had qualms about the reliability of the Africa intelligence that made its way into 16 fateful words in President Bush's January 2003 State of the Union address.
