Judging by the trackbacks at Power Line, half the blogosphere is linking to this post, so I may as well jump in, too.
Laurie Mylroie has sent out an email debunking one of the key pieces of evidence in Paul O'Neill's new book. Take a look. If true, it's certainly a base and childish attempt to smear the President. Did they really think that this wouldn't be found out? But then again, O'neill and Suskind don't seem to mind piling on the idea that the Administration having plans for Iraq prior to 9/11 is somehow remarkable (it is not) - so perhaps they got cocky figuring they could get away with slinging their own bit of mud against the created reality that exists out there.

1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
