7. Yes it is
The intelligence, reports and testimony DID NOT say imminent threat. They said "Denial and Deception".

So how did the public get the idea there was an imminent threat? By the Bush Administration in the media. And by carefully wording their reports to make old facts look like new intelligence. Remember when Graham said you'd need a grammar lesson to figure out what those reports said?

Now they are falling back on the literal words in their testimony and ignoring all the crap they said in the media and the way they distorted intelligence in their reports and testimony. Tenet is helping them do that.

We have to go back to "they're in the area of Baghdad and Tikrit" and "mushroom clouds" and "teaspoons that can kill thousands" which they put into the media. And dig back into the misrepresentations in the testimony.

The investigations will help do that as well as keeping this out in the media.
