Followup to CIA Expert's Interview on "60 Minutes" Tonight
Josh Marshall at Talking Points Memo has some excellent follow-up on the Tyler Drumheller/CIA piece on "60 Minutes" tonight:
Now, if you didn't see the episode you can catch most of the key facts in this story at the 60 Minutes website.
But here's an angle I'm not sure we're going to hear much about.
Drumheller's account is pretty probative evidence on the question of whether the White House politicized and cherry-picked the Iran intelligence.
So why didn't we hear about any of this in the reports of those Iraq intel commissions that have given the White House a clean bill of health on distorting the intel and misleading the country about what we knew about Iraq's alleged WMD programs?
Think about it. It's devastating evidence against their credibility on a slew of levels.
