Even before the memo was written, Rockefeller's staff already was off on its own, well outside the traditional bipartisan channels. According to the memo, the "FBI Niger investigation" of reports that Saddam Hussein's regime had tried to buy uranium from West Africa "was done solely at the request of the vice chairman."

Did we know it was Rockefeller who sent Wilson to Niger before this article?

This is one of WND's better articles and puts the entire fiasco in perspective. Thanks for the ping.

Wilson had always said that the Vice President asked questions, and he was sent to Niger. But he carefully parses it so that you're left with a precise impression, but he didn't actually say it. :-/

Lugsoul, do you have any comments or insights into this? Thanks. :-)
