US Acknowledges Flaws in Iraq Intelligence

“I think that what we have is evidence that there are differences between what we knew going in and what we found on the ground,” Condoleezza Rice told CBS.

Ah .. if there is a difference between what they knew and what they found shouldn’t that sentence read there are differences between what we thought we knew and what we found on the ground?

This girl’s been hanging around with ‘ole George too long, she’s starting to talk like him.

In a series of television interviews, Rice defended Bush’s decision and said the United States may never learn the whole truth about Iraq’s arms capabilities because of looting…..

“Yeah, that’s it man….. somebody snatched the WMD’s during all the ruckus of the attack - they could be anywhere man, nobody knows“ - Yeah right, do they really think anyone is going to buy into this? If possible it has less credibility than the story that said it was all a ruse and the Iraqis were feeding the U.S. bad intelligence with the intent of starting a war.
