From the NYT Article:
In February 2002, I was informed by officials at the Central Intelligence Agency that Vice President Dick Cheney's office had questions about a particular intelligence report. While I never saw the report, I was told that it referred to a memorandum of agreement that documented the sale of uranium yellowcake — a form of lightly processed ore — by Niger to Iraq in the late 1990's. The agency officials asked if I would travel to Niger to check out the story so they could provide a response to the vice president's office.
Now everything else I've read indicates that the papers that are now known to be a forgery, said that Saddam had attempted to procure uranium.
So, knowing what we know about Wilson, is it possible he reported back, (supposedly verbally to Cheney's office), that no, a sale did not take place? When the intel supposedly said that Saddam had attempted to procure a sale? I know, it's parsing, but Wilson going to Niger for eight days and drinking mint tea and asking questions...well forgive me if I don't exactly place my highest level of confidence in this guy.
Further, did he ever submit a written report?
Did he ask if they bought uranium or if he tried to buy uranium? I clearly remember the nuclear issue being that Saddam was attempting to restart his nuclear program.
*sigh* More questions than answers I know.
Oh, and yes. Tenet needs to go. 9-11, no bin Laden, Saddam's in the bunker, oh I guess not, Saddam's in the tunnel, oh I guess not, we lost him, we didn't pull this line from the speech...the list is not short. Too much is at stake to leave this Clinton holdover in such an important position as this. Time to clean house.
