The Truth Will Out - but WHEN?

Maureen Dowd agrees that the latest WMD "investigation" was a waste of taxpayer funds and yet another effort at White House Whitewash:

It is absurd to have yet another investigation... that intentionally skirts how the $40 billion-a-year intelligence was molded and manufactured to fit the ideological schemes of those running the White House and Pentagon.

As the commission's co-chairman, Laurence Silberman, put it: "Our executive order did not direct us to deal with the use of intelligence by policy makers, and all of us were agreed that that was not part of our inquiry."
Huh? That's like an investigation into steroids in baseball that looks only at the drug companies, not the players who muscled up.

We don't need a 14-month inquiry producing 601 pages at a cost of $10 million to tell us the data on arms in Iraq was flawed. We know that. When we got over there, we didn't find any.

This is the fourth exhaustive investigation that has not answered the basic question: How did the White House and Pentagon spin the information and why has no one gotten in trouble for it?

Dowd then recounts the story of how the WMD info was picked and chosen to fit the pre-conceived invasion plan, based on intelligence from a guy called Curveball, the alcoholic cousin of Ahmed Chalabi, a man "described as 'crazy' by his intelligence handlers and a 'congenital liar' by his friends. "

Elsewhere, Justin Raimondo at antiwar.com has an even more exhaustive look at the Curveball saga and the WMD deception.

We all know what really happened. How long can the deception last? Demand REAL answers.
