Many rporters and editors and generals, people who participated in selling the assault on Iraq, are now coming forward to admit they were wrong, misguided and deceived, and they kind of wish they hadn't done it. OK, fine. but look I am not a journalist. it is not my job to investigate claims of weapons and nukes before publishing them. But even so, I, a simple ordinary citizen, knew it was all lies from the beginning. Should I now be expected to believe the guy running CBS news thought the press releases he was getting from the white house were credible without even calling anybody up to ask them? Because the poor slob was too dumb to know what he was doing? Anyone in the public arena who claims they were deceived is lying. Just like they were lying, and knew it, all along.
