My Dog Ate It

What the hell kind of media do we have when the president's top security advisor can get away with claiming she "forgot" that a key bit of intelligence about a country we were going to go to war with was bogus?

DR. RICE: It’s not a matter of getting back in. It’s a matter, Tim, that three-plus months later, people didn’t remember that George Tenet had asked that it be taken out of the Cincinnati speech and then it was cleared by the agency. I didn’t remember. Steve Hadley didn’t remember. We are trying to put now in place methods so you don’t have to be dependent on people’s memories for something like that.
