"EDITOR'S NOTE - Jennifer Loven covers the White House for The Associated Press." READER'S NOTE: Not very well. This is an old, dead, trumped-up story with no traction outside the capital beltway.

I guess the Democrats and the leftist press didn't believe Clinton either, when he stated on Larry King (this week)that their are always disagreements between security groups and that it was not surprising at all that a statement such as this would get into a speech. Clinton also mentioned that there was no doubt that Saddam possessed WMD when Clinton left office.

"The White House attempt to defuse criticism over President Bush's now-discredited claim of Iraqi uranium-shopping in Africa"
__________________________________________
I am so sick of the White House allowing this to come out this way. He did not say Saddam was trying to buy uranium from Africa, he said Brittish intelligence has informed us that he was trying. They also informed us he was trying in 1985, and he did. The liberals are perpetrating a lie!

The White House attempt to defuse criticism over President Bush's now-discredited claim of Iraqi uranium-shopping in Africa... Now-discredited? Notice how this is simply stated as accepted fact by the AP. Their blatant bias is unbelievable. Well, actually it's not since so many people probably do believe it.

limosine liberal comes to mind.

The White House attempt to defuse criticism over President Bush's now-discredited claim of Iraqi uranium-shopping in Africa has produced shifting explanations of how the assertion landed in his State of the Union speech. It was not discredited .. The Brits still claim they were and I don't recall reading the French stating that Saddam wasn't trying to get it

Is "news analysis" something new at AP?? Have they ever done this before???
To: TheOtherOne
A second memo, sent on Oct. 6, elaborated on the CIA's doubts, describing "some weakness in the evidence," such as the fact that Iraq already had a large stock of uranium and probably wouldn't need more, Hadley said. Everyone seems to be missing this tidbit...that made the war even MORE urgent than the statement that he "sought uranium".

Gee, why doesn't someone consider the possibility that different people within the Administration have different opinions as to the reliability of that information, and as to whether the inclusion of the reference to Britain in the SOTU speech was proper?
Differences of opinion are not evidence of lying or deceit.
