CIA's best guess no longer good enough.

Yesterday the President said the CIA’s Report on Iraq was just a guess.

“The CIA laid out several scenarios. It said that life could be lousy, life could be OK, life could be better. And they were just guessing as to what the conditions might be like,” Bush told reporters during a picture-taking session with Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi. “The Iraqi citizens are defying the pessimistic predictions,” Bush said.

“The American people have seen horrible scenes on our TV screens. And the prime minister will be able to say to them that in spite of the sacrifices being made, in spite of the fact that Iraqis are dying, and U.S. troops are dying as well, that there is a will among the Iraqi people to succeed.”

If only the President would have told us the CIA was just guessing about the Weapons of Mass Destruction everyone would be home by now.
