just noticed that The Carnegie Endowment For International Peace are releasing a report today about the exploitation and obfuscation of WMDs intelligence during the buildup to war in iraq.

theres a live webfeed presentation by CEIP at 1230 est.

us news outlets have ignored the release although abc news did pick up the reuters (uk) wire story. i dont know if the fact that there is a quote from someone on Nightline has anything to do with that. the financial times has the most balanced report. they also refer to CEIP as a "moderately left of center" think tank which i would say is more apt than "liberal."

mcgoverning expectations

"The Democrats see a hobgoblin under the bed, and his name is George McGovern. Low-grade panic is beginning to set in as pundits forecast a repeat of 1972: "As Massachusetts goes, so goes the District of Columbia." The prospect of "another McGovern" whets the appetite of Bush partisans while generating gloom and shame among Democrats. Howard Dean, for one, flees the association, while other candidates tar him with it."

"It's hard to say which Landis harmed more -- America's National Pastime, or its Common Decency. He was ghoulish even to look at, "a wasted man," wrote John Reed, "with untidy white hair and an emaciated face in which two burning eyes [were] set like jewels, [his] parchment skin split by a crack for a mouth -- the face of Andrew Jackson three years dead.""
