i didn’t discard the quote because it was unfavorable to my party..

i pointed out that the quote you used to characterize the report was not supported by the majority of the evidence in that report… and therefore wasn’t part of the majority opinion.

Go back and look at the list of committee members.. and then find out what party they belonged to.

There were Republicans who did not agree with the dissenting opinion.

In fact, your candidate for president was one who chose not to join in the dissenting opinion written by Orin Hatch.

The majority opinion was based on the evidence.. which you should know since you read the entire report..

the dissenting opinion was based on your quote..

it assumed any evidence which did not agree with it’s opinion was fabricated or politically manipulated…

if you assume that everything you believe is correct…. and that all evidence to the contrary is incorrect… you can call anything truth… whether it is supported by the evidence or not.

given the suspect nature of all the evidence we had at the time and the fact that Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with the incident that triggered our reactions (911)…

i’d say it was a bad idea.

but if reading that report didn’t convince you of that, nothing anyone can say will.
