Just Now on the Diane Rehm Show
Michael Isikoff said that the infamous "Curveball" program of intelligence gathering was a "fiasco". As you will recall, "Curveball" was the source of the phony intelligence that formed the basis of Colin Powell's lie-filled UN presentation of phony, mendacious "evidence" in support of the Iraq invasion.
A fiasco? Well, no, Mikey, they got their invasion, the American public believed Colin Powell's lies with the amplification that the likes of Newsweek provided. Curveball was a total success for the Bush regime. A total success, with the help of the Washington Press Corps. The truth wouldn't have worked for them at all.
Who gave David Corn the Koolaid?
