Just to put this in another context, if your doctor has been paid off by some pharma company to use a drug that CURES you, and is the right drug for you, do we care why he used it? We might care if he used the wrong treatment- but only then.

So what really matters when facing a problem is that you find the right solution and use the right information. HOW you get that information may be of concern to people who are against certain vices in government, but that has to be a much lower priority than actually get the right information and being right.

Or so I would think. Especially when big things like wars are involved.

Unfortunately, we discounted some of the more accurate ones, and relied heavily on some of the least accurate ones.

Who were the accurate sources? And please dont' say Scott Ritter. If you can't see that bribed sources are tainted, the rest of the world can. I love how Iktomi is saying that doctors paid by big pharma are just fine - gee, that's not what the left usually has to say about the paid spokemen for big pharma or the tobacco industry.
