Wow that was fast....
I wrote the posting regarding the forthcoming attacks on the 9/11 commissions credibility Sunday night. This morning we have Bill Safire's Op-Ed from the New York Times attacking the commission staff.
The Zelikow Report
"Panel Finds No Qaeda-Iraq Tie" went the Times headline. "Al Qaeda-Hussein Link Is Dismissed" front-paged The Washington Post. The A.P. led with the thrilling words "Bluntly contradicting the Bush Administration, the commission. . . ." This understandably caused my editorial-page colleagues to draw the conclusion that "there was never any evidence of a link between Iraq and Al Qaeda. . . ."

But sadly for the administration the NYT's "has such a liberal bias", no one should believe it.
