What They Omitted BY LAURIE MYLROIE September 19, 2006

Recently the Senate Intelligence Committee published the second phase of its investigation into Iraq. The document has an outrageously lengthy name: "Report of the Select Committee on Intelligence on Postwar Findings About Iraq's WMD Programs and Links to Terrorism and How They Compare with Prewar Assessments, Together with Additional Views." It is a tendentious paper, reflecting Democratic posturing on the eve of the congressional elections. Four Republican senators on the committee complained in their dissent that it was written "with more partisan bias than we have witnessed in a long time in Washington." That is an apt characterization of the section dealing with Iraq and terrorism.

It would seem that the 911 Commission and the Senate Intelligence Committee are incapable of connecting all the dots.

I guess I should Ask? Did the Senate and the 911 Commission have access to these translations.

Who's responsible that these translations make it to these committees?

The Senate Intelligence committee does have access to the documents but I am not sure if they have their own experts looking at the documents and its translations.

The Hungarians just threw the PM out of office for lieing about the economy, what the RATS are doing here is much worse.

Do you mean like these experts

Hagel and Snowe are even worse than the donkeys because they should (but don't) know better than to give political cover to such a dishonest and mendaciously incompetent "report"..... just how stupid are Hagel and Snowe??
