Oops, Dianavan, think you got it assbackwards. I think it is the CIA that is trying to cover it's butt for providing false information to the President which resulted in the invasion of Iraq. Remember? George Tenent, when queried by the President about whether or not the CIA's reportage that Saddam had WMD, his repy was, "It's a slam dunk!"

How conveniently we forget.
