If you read the Downing Street Documents carefully you are forced to conclude that the whole 'Faulty Intelligence' dog and pony show was just another Republican cover-up of Bush lies.
Here is where you can read the Downing Street Meeting Minutes of the highest level of the British Government discussing what was going to happen and when. The text in red are the 'Gut Shot' elements that prove that Bush lied to us.
The underlined red text is the 'Head Shot' to Rethug creditability.
There were no 'intelligence failures'!
It was deliberate, first-degree lies. Damn lies that have gotten over 1600 Americans killed!
We now know why George Tenet got a medal.
The Bush administration was preparing their lies to the American people who put faith in them, when 'the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy'.
NEVER PUT FAITH
IN A REPUBLICAN!
