I, too, am concerned with statements made by the administration, but I am not totally convinced that some of them were malicious. My take is that some were to (a) save face (b) perhaps keep information from getting into the wrong hands and (c) lack of complete and accurate info in the first place. I, for one, would have considered it a plus had the President said. "I was wrong" and moved on. This would have deflected some of the sniping from the other side of the aisle. Think of it this way. What would have happened if Clinton had said: "Yeah..I got a BJ. So what?"

My biggest problem is how the reasons for Iraq (not Afganistan) have morphed over time from (yeah, he's gonna say it) WMD to ridding the region of a cruel dictator (with which I agree, and would have been reason enough). This has led to a situation that was, even by General Franks "not anticipated". Not much in the way of gratitude for our noble efforts, probably due to a lack of consideration for the cultural differences of the area.
