MSNBC: CIA Seeks Probe of White House

Here's a snippet:

As the State of the Union address was being written, CIA officials protested over how the alleged uranium connection was being portrayed, so the administration changed it to attribute it to the British, who had made the assertion in a Sept. 24 dossier.

Throughout the article, you will see that the Bush Administration new well in advance that the Niger-uranium connection was false, but used it anyway to gain support for the war on Iraq.

Apparently what I had said about Al Gore live on MSNBC in 2000 applies more to President George W. Bush now, who apparently will say anything to win the debate, whether true or not.
