The NIE, the consensus finding of all 16 US spy agencies, damaged the Bush administration's claim that the Islamic republic was actively seeking to get an atomic arsenal

"I defended our intelligence services, but made it clear that they're an independent agency; that they come to conclusions separate from what I may or may not want," said the president.


Want? Did he say want? Really??? Nothing about what's true, just, or good for the country, eh? Just want. Odd.....

Citing an anonymous senior US administration official, Newsweek magazine reported Monday that Bush had all but disowned the NIE in talks with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.


Guess he didn't want to believe the NIE.

"He told the Israelis that he can't control what the intelligence community says, but that (the NIE's) conclusions don't reflect his own views" about Iran's nuclear-weapons program, the weekly quoted the official as saying.


For want of a better phase - are you f#$king kidding me?
