| There's another documents-for-nomination fight brewing on the Hill, this time over the man George W. Bush has nominated to succeeed Douglas Feith as the Pentagon's policy chief. Sen. Carl Levin says Bush's pick is a non-starter unless the White House hands over docs related to Feith's use of intelligence before the Iraq invasion. Feith is the guy who, along with Pentagon intel chief Stephen Cambone, is most tied to the manipulation of intelligence to make Iraq look like a hotbed of al-Qaida activity despite no evidence of such a connection before the war. Feith's main vehicle for intel sifting was his "Office of Special Plans." (Here's a flashback link to a December 2003 column detailing my one and only face-to-face with Feith). Stay tuned... |
