“Scott, this is ridiculous,” said NBC White House reporter David Gregory in Monday’s press briefing, creating a news clip shown repeatedly on TV screens all over the country. “Do you stand by your statement, that you made right there from that podium, or not?” This scene was so unusual in the White House press room that it came as a shock the nation.

Really what this is about is the case for going into Iraq. The issue is really the debates about the war, the evidence that was used to go to war, and the claims that were made by this administration that proved to be false.
