"I hope this makes the headlines in the morning"

It won't. This is what is referred to in the restaurant trade as a "soft opening".

The "Grand Opening" is yet to come. But it's on its way -- and now we know this revelation will be a part of it.

The "Grand Opening" is yet to come.

You got some preview predictions?

Indeed. VP Cheney has already confirmed on MTP that Saddam Hussein was the author of 9/11 -- that is the only logical interpretation of the Atta-Al-Ani connection -- but, again, the bitter pill is always sweetened with a carefully-calibrated dose of ambiguity. And I expect the ambiguity to be maintained as long as they possibly can. If they can pressure Saddam out without having to get explicit about it, they will, and we'll never get to hear the whole story. My view is that getting rid of Saddam will take the bulk of Bush's first term in office. One thing I've learned from watching this unfold is how easy it is for Bush to stretch this out as long as he wants. We've got a long way to go yet.
