David Kay is on Hardball right now. Chris introduced him as an "NBC News Analyst". Did you know that?

I'm getting pretty squeamish about "former officials" who have such a bearing on our foreign policy, yet may feel pressure to tailor their remarks to the prevailing media winds if they know a cushy job is waiting for them.

It's a little unnerving to think Kay may have been doing nothing more than auditioning for network execs while he was supposed to be concerning himself with Iraq's weapons compliance. Gee, I hope he wasn't distracted by the lure of $$$ or anything!
