Fred,

There's one issue I haven't seen yet.  The report that
the media is referring to (according to the media) was 
an internal document that was part of a briefing/
update that GW requested and was held in Aug.  My
question is: how did the media get ahold of this
document?  If I remember correctly, Presidential
briefings are classified.  (Aren't they?)

R/ Tim

P.S.  Since the conspriacy nuts' web sites (makes for
entertaining reading on very slow days) have compared
GW's silence to "Josphef Gobbels Nazi Ministry of 
Propaganda", I hereby invoke Godwin's Law and declare
the whole "Did he know?" issue as moot.
