About the July 12, 2003 WH Press Briefing that went missing back then. I went there last night, and earlier today, and it was not there. Well guess what folks its back up tonight.

What is going on?

1. Is it the same as the original? Has anything changed?

[KerryOn]

2. I don't have a copy of the original..

... trying to locate one. Lots of people copied it back in 2003.

3. Who has the original?

Dose the original match this:

MR. FLEISCHER: {snip} This is in Wilson's report back to the CIA. Wilson's own report, the very man who was on television saying Niger denies it, who never said anything about forged documents, reports himself that officials in Niger said that Iraq was seeking to contact officials in Niger about sales.

7. I recall watching him saying this gem:

MR. FLEISCHER: "It remains clear from the United Nations and others that Saddam had biological weapons, chemical weapons that he had not accounted for. Those are weapons of mass destruction. We continue to learn about the Iraqi nuclear program, information such as the scientist who had buried material in his garden for the purpose of bringing it out after the sanctions were imposed. The concerns are valid. The yellow cake report may have turned out to be inaccurate, but the broader concerns remain valid."

Yeah I remember the pictures of a 1958 Chevy transmission dug up from that old guy's rose garden...

8. July 9th and July 12 were missing

Check out this very old link about the 12th of 2003:

I'm telling you that on Thursday night (July 21st) I was following this thread and the Press Briefing for the 12th of July of 2003 was not there. Nor was it there late Friday afternoon either. There was no link, and you could not get to the page by typing in the URL.

Now late last night when I was looking for something else at the WH web site I was shocked to see that it had appeared, link and all.

I'm telling you this is real weird.
