contemplate the implications

THEMEMO
* tedkennedy: "We never should have gone to war for ideological reasons driven by politics and based on manipulated intelligence. The Downing Street Minutes provide even more proof that this is exactly what happened on Iraq. The Administration’s dishonesty, lack of candor, and lack of planning have brought us to where we are today, with American soldiers dying, Iraqi civilians living in constant fear, and with no clearer picture of our strategy for victory in Iraq than when we started."

* thememo got a question at the blinky/bliar press conference.

* and thememo got some play in wapo (online only, in the World Opinion Wrapup). "More than a month after its publication, the so-called Downing Street Memo remains among the top 10 most viewed articles on The Times of London site." LINK
and then the journo does an online discussion about it: " I think its hard to journalist's born and bred in the ways of Washington to contemplate the implications." LINK
