MSNBC just reported the story as the President was given erraneous information! CNN I refuse to have on my TV!

I almost got him, but he's a crafty one this "Wilkinson", here's the best picture I could find of him, it may yield some clues. I believe that's Terrence on the left of the picture.
Nice work BTW.

Doesn't finding centrifuges buried under rose bushes and admissions that Saddam waited for the right timing to continue the process debunks the article?
CIA finds papers, parts in Iraq for enriching uranium
CHB appears to be adding more hash for reporters to throw Bush off his stride during Q & A's in Africa.

I agree that such articles need better source researching. After all, I still hold conservatives to a higher standard than Jason Blair. Just because someone is conservative, that doesn't excuse bad reportage. (There are those claiming to be conservative that post fabricated material in other, more contentious, threads.)

From the article...
Bush said in his State of the Union address that the British government had learned that Saddam recently sought significant quantities of uranium in Africa.The president's statement was incorrect because it was based on forged documents from the African nation of Niger, White House spokesman Ari Fleischer acknowledged.
Wasn't this disclosed at one of the UN meetings? A more interesting story, a story more to the point would be about who forged the documents.
This type of item by item sniping is not going to uncover what the opposition is looking for, particularly when the reasons for military action stood on no particular leg of information but rather multiple legs. As Condi Rice recently said, she has been criticized for not connecting the very few dots that could have prevented September 11. The dots, she went on to say, involving Iraq numbered in the hundreds and thousands.

For obvious reasons, a current CIA employee who might be called upon for duty in another country would probably use a "work name" rather than his own.
Would you be surprised if the intrepid sleuth who wrote this would find that if he called the CIA's number and asked for Terrence that he'd be told there was no one there by that name. :-)

For the record, I have found a "Terrence J Wilkinson" via an address search in Illinois. However, his first name is not spelled with an A, but an E.
I did locate a Terrance Wilkinson in VA via an e-mail search, but those e-mail searches don't give any info of worth except somebody is there.

Does Mr. Wilkinson know Scott Ritter?
I'm bad! I posted without having read the 100+ posts before mine.

Folks, I'm off to dinner. Thanks for a stimulating and thought-provoking discussion. Anyone else who needs to contact me can do via Freepmail or by email direct at
dougthompson@capitolhillblue.com. BTW, for the guy who tried to call me, you called my office line that, when I'm traveling, is forwarded to Blue Ridge Photography (which is my photo business). The kid there got tired ot answering calls for CH Blue today. I've talked to him about that. Doug

No big deal. Move on. The SacBee bypasses this problem by generating front page headlines based on "unnamed" sources.
