CIA operatives raise intel questions


As much as some Democrats and Republicans say that it doesn't matter how we got into this mess, that the question now is what do we do, it does matter how we went to war.

Misinforming the people and the Congress about reasons to prosecute a war, especially a "pre-emptive" war, is treason, as far as I am concerned.

Disinformation in a Democracy is treason, because it undermines the very pilars upon which a democracy is built.

CIA operatives raise intel questions - Hardball with Chris Matthews - MSNBC.com:

"Did President Bush lead our country to war based on faulty intelligence, or did his administration twist and cherry-pick the information for a war they had already decided to start?
Somebody is responsible for this war. Is it the president, the politicians in Congress who voted to authorize the war, the military who saluted Bush three years ago when the war was popular who are now calling for Defense Secretary Rumsfeld's resignation, or was it cooked intelligence from the administration?

Two high-ranking CIA operatives who were actively involved in the run-up to the war answered this question and more."
