Whatever happened to this interview? no follow ups? I mean, democrats need to get some spine and go after GW aggressively. Sometimes it looks like all talk and no walk....republicans would have already assigned a special prosecutor and blasting all across the news for days...

Wesley Clark Says Bush Officials Asked Him to Publicly
State 9/11 and Hussein are Connected

On Meet the Press, Wesley Clark Says Bush Officials Asked Him to Publicly
State 9/11 and Hussein are Connected

"GEN. CLARK: I think it was an effort to convince the American people to do
something, and I think there was an immediate determination right after 9/11
that Saddam Hussein was one of the keys to winning the war on terror... there
was a concerted effort during the fall of 2001 starting immediately after 9/11
to pin 9/11 and the terrorism problem on Saddam Hussein. MR.

RUSSERT: By who? Who did that?

GEN. CLARK: Well, it came from the White House, it came from
people around the White House. It came from all over. I got a call on 9/11. I
was on CNN, and I got a call at my home saying, 'You got to say this is
connected. This is state-sponsored terrorism. This has to be connected to
Saddam Hussein.' I said, 'But -- I'm willing to say it but what's your
evidence?' And I never got any evidence. And these were people who had --
Middle East think tanks and people like this and it was a lot of pressure to
connect this and there were a lot of assumptions made."
