Yep - I'm waiting for the hawks to try and explain how David Kay, the Bush 
Administration's hand-picked replacement for UN Weapons Inspector Hans Blix 
(who they claimed was biased), came to the same conclusion as Blix - i.e., 
there are no WMD in Iraq.

Here's my take:  http://isuma.org/index.php?p=87  - which includes a link to 
the full interview text from the David Kay interview by Reuters.
