As it turns out, intelligence was not well analyzed by the administration, and yes, I do believe Cheney etc. cherry picked intelligence to support a war he wanted long before 9/11.

You cannot bury your head in the sand by not acknowledging that Cheney ahd big plans for Iraq from the time they were selected in 2000. PNAC erases any doubt or question anyone may have and if any one still is questioning the integrity (or lack of) by Cheney and this administration at this point in the game, they are true dummies.

Excellent post Free.
