Capital Games

The Bush crew still hasn't uncovered evidence that its prewar
pronouncements about weapons of mass destruction were on (or close to) the
mark. Nor has it been able to explain why the Pentagon did not move
expeditiously during and after the war to secure suspected WMD sites.

Still, as David Corn explains in a new edition of Capital Games, Bush has
not had to answer the tough questions regarding WMD, largely because polls
show that most Americans aren't particularly concerned that the
Administration seems to have lied about what it knew regarding Hussein's
weapons stores.

But the current chaos in Iraq may be a different matter. Last week,
Democratic and Republican senators finally began criticizing the Bush
Administration's handling of the postwar situation. The complaints have
hardly reached a crescendo. But there are stirrings.
