Exhaustive review sponsored by the Pentagon finds NO link between Saddam, al Qaida

Pardon me for interrupting the ping-pong match.

Just in case y'all missed my "CYA" point...

If, by chance, some evidence does come about that there was indeed some level of coorperation between Sadaam and AQ, the Pentagon will simply point out the "operational" level clause. On the other hand, if the more likely occurs and there is never any evidence of a connection made, the Pentagon will simply point out where they said the report said there was no connection conveniently leaving out any mention of the "operational" clause.
