I remember the stories of the WMDs coming up towards the end of the Bush admin. The reason given that they had suppressed them was that they didn't want every terrorist in Iraq targeting the convoys they were using to extract them. When the announcement was made, the press just dropped the issue rather than admit fault.

Though it was always wierd to me that the Bush admin didn't go around tooting its own horn on this. But then, nothing about the GOP's tactical decisions at the time made sense. Maybe you're exactly right--this was a planned handover of power to the Dems to get certain agendas pushed through. It's disheartening, but it certainly fits the known facts.

There has never been any doubt that his father was a full-fledged, card-carrying member of the GOP establishment.

And a former CIA director.
