But in the larger scale of things, these improprieties are of no great consequence.

Ahhhhh, takes me back to those heady days (no pun intended) of "it's just about sex".

Cockburn has got to be one of the most untrustworthy writers working today --- a truly expert and inventive liar.

He's the last guy I would go to for an honest opinion.

The invasion of Iraq was premised on the existence of weapons of mass destruction. None has yet been found, and most of the U.S. detective teams are now wanly returning home.

Ahhh.... I knew he was getting at something.

>>that a Pentagon desperate for good publicity during a time when the invasion seemed to have faltered amid unexpectedly stiff resistance. <<

This guy must be delusional. I don't recall the Pentagon misrepresenting the rescue.

And who cares about the rescue details? If one has the courage to drive into battle with the devil, does it really matter whether the devil was there at that moment?
