She was musing on the wrongness of the Intelligence [she had reported] which lead her to think about what other wrong Intelligence there might be which lead her to Syria, Iran, and Korea and what monsterous weapons they might have we don’t know about. She got from overestimates in Iraq to underestimates elsewhere in about a minute. It was something of a window into how paranoid her view of the world really is. She was an easy mark for the apocalyptic stories she was fed before the war.</p> Then there was that very odd spin.
