thinkprogress.org — Last night on MSNBC, Pulitzer-Prize winning author Ron Suskind revealed to Keith Olbermann more steps the administration took after Wilson?s op-ed. In 2003, the Bush administration tried to bury statements by head of Iraqi intelligence, Tahir Jalil Habbush, that Saddam Hussein had no WMD.

I would recommend you reading everything but the last chapter of Suskind's One Percent Doctrine. The last chapter is where he takes everything from up to that point and tries to create a conclusion that lacks any supporting logic from what has been said before. I remember listening to the audio book and finding it informative, but in the last chapter when he rolls into his party line rhetoric I distinctly remember saying out loud "You've got to be f**king kidding me".I highly expect Suskind's new book to use lots of facts and make a lot of sense until the last chapter, but of course the great propogandists always mix just enough truth with lies to make the lies glitter.
