Now we KNOW the wheels are coming off

In one of the strangest stories I've heard so far it seems that a joint Iraqi/US force entered Ahmed Chalabi's compound in Baghdad and grabbed a bunch of documents. Chalabi, for those who don't know, is a total scumbag who was the main "source" of fake information about Saddam's "WMD." He's been the guy the US has wanted to put in charge of Iraq since before the war started. He's Cheney and Rummy's guy. Which probably explains why Rummy sounded shocked and dismayed when he walked out of the congressional hearings and into questions about the raid. He stammered and ultimatly dodged the question. Chalabi claims it was the Iraqi faction of the Coalition Provisional Authority who was responsible. That's probably true, they know he's a crook. It's going to be interesting to see how much money we pay the bastard to forgive us.
