The larger question is whether voters will blame the White House for these two massive mistakes... there was plenty of valid intelligence available from sources other than the CIA to establish overwhelming doubt that a military invasion of iraq was justifiable. i heard and read it myself and i'm just an ordinary citizen. i protested from day one. the great majority of people on the planet could see it before, during and after the decision was made... including the majority of our traditional allies. that leaves two main possibilities for the actions of the white house (and congress): either the decision to invade was made because of... 1) unreasonable, ignorant, sloppy stupidity inexcusable for someone holding such an important position of power in the world or... 2) other hidden motives that were not publicly stated either way, i'll be voting to impeach and remove! when the leadership becomes either too incompetent or too secretive and deceptive in a democracy... the ballot box speaks loudly. -elpolvo
