14. "Oversold"? "Overstated?" "Misjudged?"

How about "fabricated?" "Conspired?" "LIED??????"

(The)...draft (of the report), apparently prepared by staff under the control of the Republican chairman, fingers the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency and other security authorities, faulting them for overstating both the threat of weapons of mass destruction and Baghdad's links with terrorism.
Careful, guys, this can be taken two ways. Obviously, they're playing for the the "Bush, the babe in the woods" angle. You know--evil, vengeful Dems to the left of him; secretive, scheming Repubs to the right, and him totally unaware. But this could also mean that the security agencies knew that the Bush regime was invading no matter what (as indicated by PNAC), and were therefore "expected" to provide the evidence that the Pretzel-Dunce "needed."
