More trouble for Cheney

LATELY?!

If my sorry ass has known about Curve Ball for over two years, how can this man be troubled by his unreliability "lately"? Newsweek had a rather remarkable piece on Curve Ball last year and how everyone knew he was full of ****, yet they used him anyway. Powell even told the administration that Curve Ball's intel didn't add up, yet went right ahead and presented it to the UN willingly. How entertaining it is to see these people jump ship and use stuff that's been known for ages as their reasons for doing so.
