<I've talked with a lot of Iraqis in the last several months myself, had them to the White House. The president and I have met with them, various groups and individuals, people who have devoted their lives from the outside to trying to change things inside Iraq ... The read we get on the people of Iraq is there is no question but what they want to get rid of Saddam Hussein, and they will welcome as liberators the United States when we come to do that.">

It seems so absurd to think that Iraqi exiles would be impartial or well informed -- this is a group with an agenda if there ever was one. They are not accountable and they stood to gain personally from being catapulted into positions of power in the post-war period. Absurd to be listening to them.
