Oh, katze, I didn't want to imply you ought to have seen it, but I didn't want the impression left that Wilson's entire history had been ignored on FR.

As for Cheney asking him to go---that tale was begun by Wilson and is twisted and inflated, as many of Wilson's other claims are. The left, (politicians and media for awhile), picked up the Wilson version. The media has published many blatant lies like that over the last week.

Was V.P. Cheney interested in and tracking the Niger story? Most likely and as it should be. But he wasn't directing its investigation and did not send Wilson or ever hear the results of the Wilson trip in the form of a briefing.

IMO, much remains to be learned. But, thanks for your imput.
