Check out the response from the Weekly Standard to the DoD's official statement on its Saddam/Osama "Case Closed" report:

The last line is particularly good - almost as if he's talking about someone we know. ;-)

"Anybody who says there is no working relationship between al Qaeda and Iraqi intelligence going back to the early '90s--they can only say that if they're illiterate. This is a slam dunk."
James Woolsey, CIA Director under Clinton, upon consideration of the Feith memo.

I am a moderate too. If you think John Kerry was wrong to protest Nam you're not a moderate, you're a unapologetic right-winger. Anyone with a brain knows the war was a terrible tragic failed policy by then and that there was no hope of doing anything more than killing hundreds of thousands of more people, with no strategic purpose anymore. It would have literally been an endless war. That's the kind of war that brings down empires. And John's service and loss from that war are much more meaningful than any revisoinist history the right is slinging.
BTW: I have high respect for honest conservatives, but this current Bush team is radical and dishonest.

based on reality.
