White House Ducks Prewar Intel Questions - Yahoo! News: "WASHINGTON - The White House sought to deflect politically charged questions Wednesday about
President Bush's use of prewar intelligence in
Iraq, saying Democrats, too, had concluded
Saddam Hussein was a threat.
'If Democrats want to talk about the threat that Saddam Hussein posed and the intelligence, they might want to start with looking at the previous administration and their own statements that they've made,' White House press secretary Scott McClellan said.
He said the Clinton administration and fellow Democrats 'used the intelligence to come to the same conclusion that Saddam Hussein and his regime were a threat.'"
