Frankly, the question of bias is relevant only AFTER classified one determines if someone is telling the truth. If what Joe Wilson said were true, it wouldn't classified matter that he was a Kerry supporter. The question of bias is meaningful only in trying to figure out WHY Wilson was wrong, not WHETHER Wilson was wrong. People often have partisan motives for doing the right classified thing or exposing lies--among other motives, such as the desire to be decent and honest. 3D UPDATE: NOTE: Obsidianwings points out that the Washington Post story that I quoted from had been corrected to change "Iraq" to "Iran" in the following sentence: “According to the former Niger mining minister, Wilson told his CIA contacts, Iraq tried to buy 400 tons of uranium in 1998.” I have accordingly updated, replacing this sentence with the first bracketed material above. Any necessary additions are shown in brackets.
