By the way, Larry K's statement is not entirely true. He says "Now the committee has filed an interim report with unanamous consent.   The report states ABSOLUTELY CLEARLY that Bush didn't lie, that Richard Clark was in error, that Thomas Wilson was self serving and also in error." But the only parts that even be construed to allege Wilson was in error or that Bush did not lie are the "additional comments," which are NOT unanimous but signed by individual committee members. The ones that suggest wrongdoing by Wilson and exoneration of the President are signed only by the most partisan Republicans, Hatch, Bond and Roberts.

Predictably, the comments signed by Democrats on the committee say the following:

"The central issue of how intelligence on Iraq was used or misused by administration officials in public statements and reports was relegated to the second phase of the committee's investigation...the Committee's phase one report fails to fully explain the environment of intense pressure in which Intelligence Community officials were asked to render judgements on matters relating to Iraq when policy officials had already forcefully stated their own conclusions in public."

In other words, they haven't even ASKED whether Bush lied yet.
