Washington Post...? THRUSTING into the public eye...? PUH-LEEZE...

The question of prewar intelligence has been thrust back into the public eye with the disclosure of a secret British memo showing that, eight months before the March 2003 start of the war, a senior British intelligence official reported to Prime Minister Tony Blair that U.S. intelligence was being shaped to support a policy of invading Iraq.

who the hell is doing this THRUSTING i'd like to know... it sure as hell hasn't been the washington post... i posted on this story way back on APRIL 30 when the london sunday times broke the story in their MAY 1 edition... ~checks calendar~ and it's NOW MAY 22...? it took the u.s. media TEN FRIGGIN' DAYS to break the story here... thrusting...? THRUSTING...? i don't think so...
