German Intelligence Was 'Dishonest, Unprofessional and Irresponsible'

I agree the press and the left have provided a tremendous roadblock. What leaves me baffled is the numerous times that someone from the administration has been interviewed on TV and just lets comments that are not true go by.

The same happens with others on the right who support the war. They either don't have all the facts (see that way too often) or they don't know how to “speak truth to power” (ie media). Why haven't the Republicans in congress been more vocal and insistent on the whole truth. Me thinks they and their aides spend too much time playing politics rather than the country's business.

Even the rt wing talk shows have fallen down on the job with the WMD issue. Everyone takes the info at the top of the fold but most do not do their own research.
