politics are making me angry...

from one of earl's posts:
"Furthermore, I do not find it interesting or concerning in the least that our president would rely upon our country’s intelligence community for his information. After all, that is why the intelligence community exists. I would have found it far more disturbing if he had given credence to outside sources—because that would signal the administrations belief, recognition, and awareness that our intelligence capabilities were inadequate. Rather, the President’s confidence and willingness to trust our intelligence community in the days leading up to the conflict in Iraq signal that he believed he had assembled a team of the best."

from bush's state of the union:
"From three Iraqi defectors we know that Iraq, in the late 1990s, had several mobile biological weapons labs. These are designed to produce germ warfare agents, and can be moved from place to a place to evade inspectors. Saddam Hussein has not disclosed these facilities. He's given no evidence that he has destroyed them."

earl,
if chalabi and the rest are not "outside sources" and self-interested ones at that, i don't know what are. now we accuse the same guy who helped us get into this war of spying for iran. that's what i would call a "team of the best" and if i were you i would be "far more disturbed".
