One wonders how much effort the Bush team has put into trying to track down the source of that Niger forgery. It certainly seems like that should be a national security priority, don't you think? If they have put much effort into it, I wonder if it was with more honesty than Bush's trying to get to the bottom of who leaked Plame's name, LOL!

"The pair of time lines in the book is an attempt to map the rollout of the administration’s false intelligence claims about Iraq" I notice Rich doesn't say "lies" here. How is it useful to insist on that word given how provocative it is and how hard it is to prove definitively? How does that advance anything of value? What is the added value of insisting on intentional deceit over gross errors?
