[...]
Amid revelations about faulty prewar intelligence and a scandal surrounding the indictment of the vice president's chief of staff and presidential adviser, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, FRONTLINE goes behind the headlines to investigate the internal war that was waged between the intelligence community and Richard Bruce Cheney, the most powerful vice president in the nation's history.

I saw this last night and it is quite good. I was surprised at how candid David Kay was about the lack of evidence or confidence in the mission before he even went to Iraq. The only thing lacking from the program is that Frontline didn't really explore how/why Tenet changes his tune from discounting the WMD report to fully embracing them. |
