I don't know, I kind of think it's funnier the way it is. [Edit: And just so you know, since the article doesn't make it clear, Thielmann wasn't just some peon analyst or anything. He was the director of the Strategic, Proliferation, and Military Affairs Office, Bureau of Intelligence and Research, U.S. State Department, until he resigned last September (5 months before Powell's sales pitch to the UN). Gee ... I wonder why he resigned???]
“…The main problem was that the senior administration officials have what I call faith-based intelligence,” says Thielmann... Man, this *#*#*#*# gets funnier and sadder everyday. I wonder if Thielmann has a CIA girlfriend Rove can out; if not, maybe the "lone nut-analyst" theory, yeah, that's it... I look forward to those "faith-based posters" here on BS to find a way to discredit this guy (remember, he's the guy *#*#*#*#ing handing the intelligence to and providing concomitant analysis for *#*#*#*#ING Powell...) Wow.
Thielman's comments and take on the situation were featured prominently on Martin Smith's "Frontline" piece last week. Body language and tone of delivery from Thielman say: I'm *#*#*#*#ing pissed.
