Downing Street Memo

I finally got around to reading it. Anyone who's dug beyond page A-18 in their newspaper probably has heard of most of this stuff before, and shouldn't be surprised at the content. Still, it's definitely worth a read, if only so you can quote an even more unimpeachable source:

C reported on his recent talks in Washington. There was a perceptible shift in attitude. Military action was now seen as inevitable. Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy. The NSC had no patience with the UN route, and no enthusiasm for publishing material on the Iraqi regime's record. There was little discussion in Washington of the aftermath after military action.

I found it (via BoingBoing) at a site dedicated to the memo.
