There is such anger in the Intelligence Community over the misuse of their reporting Same in the UK. There have been a ton of leaks [MoD or intelligence community]. Latest leak being that senior officials at Whitehall don't believe that WMD will ever be found in Iraq. jttmab

One way or another they're going to get even with the White House - probably by leaking damning evidence - at least so I hope Your prayers have been answered....[or hopes as the case may be]. That was fast...which god do you pray to; I'll join <s>. CIA Got Uranium Reference Cut in Oct. Why Bush Cited It In Jan. Is Unclear By Walter Pincus and Mike Allen Washington Post Staff Writers Sunday, July 13, 2003; Page A01 CIA Director George J. Tenet successfully intervened with White House officials to have a reference to Iraq seeking uranium from Niger removed from a presidential speech last October, three months before a less specific reference to the same intelligence appeared in the State of the Union address, according to senior administration officials. Tenet argued personally to White House officials, including deputy national security adviser Stephen Hadley, that the allegation should not be used because it came from only a single source, according to one senior official. Another senior official with knowledge of the intelligence said the CIA had doubts about the accuracy of the documents underlying the allegation, which months later turned out to be forged...... washingtonpost.com You may recall from Ms Rice, that neither Bush or anyone on his staff knew....goodness. Could White House Officials, including deputy national security adviser Stephen Hadley have forgotten that Tenet personnally argued against it? Could Ms. Rice not have known about this? Did she forget? Was she out sick the day that Tenet made his objections known and the other staff didn't think it was of import enough to mention it to her? Intervention by the DCI on a specific issue and they forgot! jttmab
