Donald Rumsfeld

If you go to the website that I put up, rumsfeld.com, there are hundreds of documents, thousands of pages, and what you will see is the absence of certainty.

You will see probing, questioning, wondering, do we have enough information?

Are there more things we ought to know?

It's quite exactly the opposite.

If you would go to my TiVo... He doesn't think I know what that means.

And that's not how you remember it.

It isn't at all, really.

I mean, I know what was going through my mind.

And I know the kinds of questions the president would ask and the questions that Colin Powell or Condi Rice or the vice president would ask.

And there was a searching.

There was lots of questions.

A yearning, if you will.

Well.

It's not quite the word I would use.

Now we're, okay.

In that respect, you're exactly right.

There's no question but that the intelligence community

presented that information.

Colin Powell made the presentation at the United Nations.

He probably had as much experience dealing with intelligence products as anyone in the government, including the director of CIA.
