Money Quote:

PHILIP GIRALDI, FORMER CIA OFFICER: Well, basically, what happened was that the normal procedures whereby intelligence that comes into the United States government is checked over before it goes to the policymakers, this procedure was called vetting, was circumvented. And it was essentially circumvented as you described it by the Office of Special Plans in the Pentagon, which had been set up basically to circumvent that it felt was not answering the needs of the policymakers.

So it was kind of a circular process whereby the fabricated information was introduced into the system from the bottom, up to the top, without being checked out along the way.


I guess he's just another in a long list of liars, eh TeamBush? I wonder if they understand that when multiple credible sources say things are one way and they say they aren't... Well, never mind. I'm sure they're doing just fine in the Whitehouse.
