This is a little off topic, but did anybody see Senator Inhofe on Hardball last night hold up a TopSecret Iraqi Intell document (from 1992 I believe) linking Iraq and al Qaeda. Mathews was dumbfounded when the Senator said to him that links between Saddam and al Qaeda was essentially a "settled" matter.

I don't get Hardball and so didn't see that.

I wrote Inhofe a month ago or so and recommended he talk about the links between Iraq/AQ more often and encourage the administration to do so as well.

Links are here for later reading :-)

And the mainstream media didn't run with that story??!!! (I wish I had seen it, but I don't watch Hardball.)

Will you watch for the transcript so we can read that? I just looked and it's not up yet.

What was Matthews' reaction?

I saw it. He took care to point out the difference between saying there's a connection between Saddam and 9/11 and the fact that Iraq had links to Al Qaeda, and that the two issues are constantly interchanged as denying the latter.
