Way back here I defended the notion that Iraq had chemical and biological weapons programs, and that even if they didn't have large stockpiles it was almost certainly due to our morally difficult containment policy. However, I the Bush administration promised us a lot in terms of how much there was and the state of those programs. I have in the past accused the administration of lying in terms of al-Qaeda connections and the nuclear program, and now members of the intelligence community are making accusations that the administration cooked the chemical and biological evidence, as well. The question: Will the Democrats have the guts to push for an investigation of this? And will the conservatives who were obsessed with impeaching Clinton because of a blow job stand in their way?
