I believe the administration exaggerated the threat to America for not just the Iraq war, but also for other purposes, like passing the Patriot Act... which gives more power to intelligence agencies. By passing the blame for bad info onto the intelligence community, they might push themselves back to square one. Democrats or whomever might use this so-called failure in intelligence to demand a repeal of the act and an overhaul of the system.

Oh the irony.

It's all about generating spin. They generated spin to get it and now spin is being generated to get rid of it. Sorry if that didn't make sense, I've been drinking.

well, when ya wake up, perhaps you can explain you're thinking

cuz I'm interpreting what you're saying as... "they" = "republicans" since "they" spun it to get the Act passed. And "it" as the Patriot Act. If I got your pronouns right, then you're saying that the Republicans don't want the act anymore and are looking for an excuse to get ride of it.

ok, back to diff.eq. for me...
