Terry Gross asked him some very pointed questions about the Iraq War and judicial nominations. He admitted that holding up the Clinton nominations in committee was the same as fillibustering in the Senate. That is also off message... He said that with the build up to the Iraq War congress was afraid of the possibility of Iraq having nuclear weapons.They were willing to error on the side of going to War because the nuclear threat was played up so much. But he stops short of blaming the Bush administration. He says that the intellegence community was at fault. But, with Cheney over at the CIA so often it makes me wonder...
