What part of that was wrong?

I never said the report was wrong. Our intelligence community has had
several colossal failures. It failed to predict the downfall of the
Soviet Union and it overstated Saddam's WMD capability. Those are two
very good reasons not to go to war on intelligence, but then, the CIA
didn't lead us to war, the President did.


Is it your contention that the President's decision was made exclusive of CIA
input?
