Timmy keeps asking GW if he will "testify" before the intelligence commission or the 9/11 commission..

implying that GW has done something wrong.

GW ably responded--I'll visit with them, I've given daily briefings, etc.... he's given them all the information he can, "all in the context of war."

How do you respond to critics who say that we brought the nation to war in false pretenses?

I based my decision on the best intelligence that I had, in the context of the war on terror--we were attacked and every threat had to be judged in the context of the war on terror.

I made the decision to take our case to the International community. We knew he was paying for suicide bombers and funding terrorist groups.

Let me finish--this is a vital question.

We expected to find weapons. David Kay has found the capacity to make weapons. The weapons could have been transported to another country, or destroyed, and we will find out.

Let me finish here.

But David Kay did find out that SH had the capacity and ability to make weapons--he was a dangerous man in a dangerous part of the world.

I don't think America could stand by and hope for the best from a madman. When we see a threat, we deal with those threats before they become imminent. It's too late when they become imminent.
