The only thing they are denying, is the Democrat's chance to use this information against Howard Dean. THAT is why it was leaked; If the Democrats dont stop Dean now, they never will. Then Dean will make McGovern look like a winner by comparison.

When Bush releases this information, it will be better sourced, and even more damaging to democrats then it would be against Dean today.

All DoD is saying is it shouldnt be leaked... but this is *confirming* that it is valid! some Democrat staffer/Senator already leaked the 'grim' CIA assessment on Iraq last week (what a joke, CIA has been wrong in all their predictions, who knows if this one is right or wrong). this is likely another capitol hill leak but almost certainly from 'our' side.

Administration is acting none too pleased. And why not. If Bush has something to say, he can get on primetime TV and say it.

But at least the truth is 'out there'.

I'm not following you PD. Stop Dean in favor of who, the Beestie?
