Phredgreen's got me pegged. I feel that the administration didn't press for, but demanded something to justify going to war with Iraq after 9/11. The reason I believe this (well... because I'm to the left, that's one reason) is on account of the guy who's name I can't remember, who wrote a book I didn't read, concerning his time spent inside the administration and how Bush was looking to hit Iraq from day one, and even moreso after 9/11.

But I do have a question: If the CIA misled the administration about WMD, does this mean that Bush is going to admit (wrongly or correctly, you never know what's buried in there...) that there were no WMD in Iraq at the time of invasion?

Edit: Richard A. Clarke, who wrote Against All Enemies.
