2. found this on KOS

The president builds a case for pre-emptive war based substantially on evidence that Saddam Hussein was developing weapons of mass destruction. But the weapons and the WMD programs were not found. "Dead wrong" is how a presidential commission described the pre-war intelligence. National Security Correspondent David Ensor pieces together the chain of events that led to the faulty intelligence and examines the roles played by key players in the Bush administration and the intelligence community.

4. Another attempt

to cover up the big lie. If they don't mention making the intelligence "fit" and OSP call them on it. If we are to get through to people, we have to defeat the propagandists. It's an information war.
