I agree that the administration gave up the WMD fight very early. As I said to find the WMD or program related to it must require a long time and much harder work, the ISG did take the right time to do so. The administration was under a lot of pressure to accept the findings of the ISG. I hope that the great news that has been coming from Iraq lately will encourage them to open the subject of WMD again.
Not sure if this has come up- but hasn't David Kay been completely off the radar since his report? It may not be significant- but it just seemes odd.
The administration took a serious pounding on it that won't be soon forgotten. Even now, the media will accept nothing less than the famous "smoking gun"....though when it IS found, the media and rest of the left will claim it was planted by the Americans to protect the administration or that it's a pre-Gulf War weapon. We all know the drill and the tactics they'll use.
