Senator Pat Roberts' select intel committee, according to Roberts himself, has not even yet investigated the Bush administrations's pre-invasion role of "fixing the facts, yet your "Calre Booth Luce" articel, falsely reports that the "Phae I" report somehow vindicates the Bush administration.
Here is what Roberts himself said when the "500 page report" was released in July, 2004...
Quote:
QUESTION: Given the 800 American G.I.s who have lost their lives so far, thousands have had serious injuries, lost limbs, all on the basis of false claims, as much as the American taxpayers have had to kick in almost $200 billion, doesn’t the American public and the relatives of people who lost their lives have <b>a right to know before the next election whether this administration handled intelligence matters adequately and made statements that were justified -- before the election, not after the election?</b>
ROBERTS: Well, as Senator Rockefeller has alluded to, <b>this is in phase two of our efforts. We simply couldn’t get that done with the work product that we put out. And he has pointed out that that has a top priority. It is one of my top priorities.</B> It’s his top priority, along with the reform effort.

So much has to be denied to make any of these TP's from the right, "stick".
Much bluster, no credible references.
