Wouldn't it be great if..

At times I have liked Colin Powell and under the right set of circumstances I might be supportive of him. With that said.

Wouldn't it be great if they pinned the whole WMD breakdown on him. They might be foolish enough to try it and boy would that backfire.

From Todays NYT:

"Mr. Powell's testimony, delivered at a moment of high suspense as American forces gathered in the Persian Gulf region, was widely seen as the most powerful and persuasive presentation of the Bush administration's case that Iraq was bristling with horrific weapons. His reputation for caution and care gave it added credibility.

A year later, some of the statements made by Mr. Powell have been confirmed, but many of his gravest findings have been upended by David A. Kay, who until Jan. 23 was Washington's chief weapons inspector."

...

"Congressional officials involved in investigations of the C.I.A. and current and former administration officials, suggest that Mr. Powell's case was largely based on limited, fragmentary and mostly circumstantial evidence, with conclusions drawn on the basis of the little challenged assumption that Saddam Hussein would never dismantle old illicit weapons and would pursue new ones to the fullest extent possible."

3. Why oh why

do they constantly refer to Powells testimony at the UN.
Why don't they repeat what all the other people testified to.
Such as, Hans Blix, Ebardai, Azizz that said there were no weapons.
