I wonder if those making the denials are career types, who protect other buddies in the intelligence community.

Maybe?

I wonder if it's official or if it's meerly "sources within the pentagon" who are saying this.

If it's sources then I guarantee that it's just spin.

If it's official then I want to know who made the call. If it was Rummy then I'm willing to go with the statement (depending on what is actually in it) as being in good faith, though I still want hearings and people under oath.
