The Long, Dark Backpedal of Shame

Karen DeYoung and Walter Pincus of The Washington Post on U.S. Hedges on Finding Iraqi Weapons: Officials Cite the Possibility of Long or Fruitless Search for Banned Arms:

Pressed in recent congressional hearings and public appearances to explain why the United States has been unable to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, senior Bush administration officials have begun to lay the groundwork for the possibility that it may take a long time, if ever, before they are able to prove the expansive case they made to justify the war.

I doubt there will be any accountability for the Administration's exaggerations and lies during the buildup to this war. Of course, those opposed to the war will be ignored on this issue and no one of consequence on the pro-war side of the argument seems willing to display a backbone in public.
