He also admitted that the CIA had some intelligence failures, but "let's not make a big deal of it."
Personally, I'm sold on that spin.

This is a good example of how the administration should explain things rather than fear-mongering.
If GWB came out and said that we sold Saddam the weapons and now we believe he intends on selling them to terrorists...the country would most likely be behind him.
