It was an obvious forgery. Was it beyond the capability of the CIA to ascertain that it was a forgery.

First off, the information the CIA had is DIFFERENT than what the British had..

Bush CHOSE to believe the British had better sources than our own CIA in this instance (and sometimes they do).

And the British have NOT backed off, or rescinded, that information.

So if you, or the democrats, had a problem with what Bush said, it should be addressed to the British..

Or at least.. asking why Bush chose to believe British intelligence over our own "highly capable" HUMINT networks that were put into place by the previous presidential administration by the same CIA leadership that Bush foolishly chose to keep in place. (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
